Samuel Smith's Old Brewery Pale Ale
This ale pours a dark amber with orange hues and has a tall off-white head that laces and retains quite well. The aroma is of the typical British style hops with a bit of graininess. The flavor is less hopy than the nose implies, but never the less, the British style hops definitely are the main ingredient to the flavor. The underlying maltyness throughout this beverage is a bit bready and has a grainy presence as well. Overall, not bad for a British pale ale, but could use a bit more in the flavor department. It is just a bit watered down. Mouth feel is a bit light, but the carbonation levels are done right.
