Cottage Hotel Cottage Ale

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
For the lover of truly tasty English Ales come the Cottage Ale. We brewed a traditional English ESB or 'Extra Special Bitter' for this iconic Mendon establishment. Although it is called a 'bitter', that is not what you get. What you get is a wonderful beer with some bitterness that is balanced perfectly by the English crystal malts used to brew it. The aroma is earthy and malty with a floral, almost grassy character contributed by the hops added late in the boil. The flavor is bold and clean with a crisp, dry finish and an aftertaste of lightly toasted malts. These malts also give the beer its striking amber hue and creamy head. A perfect ale to be paired with hearty Cottage fare. Brewed with Pale, CaraAmber, Dark Crystal and Dark CaraMunich malts. Hopped with Target and Fuggle hops. Brewed for the Cottage Hotel, Mendon, NY.
