A Beer Review: Samuel Smith’s Old Brewery Pale Ale


The Beer
5% abv
550ml bottle
Sam’l Smith’s Old Brewery
North Yorks, England
My Strength Rating: 4

Appearance: amber in color with an off-white head.
Aroma: sweet with a touch of fruit
Taste: Uhm?... Pale ale? ... Muted fruitiness that is slightly sweet with some mild hop bitterness. There is a biscuit like quality that mingles with a grainy texture and a light earthy feel. Not what I expected but, I think I do like the ale.
Mouthfeel: the fine carbonation tingles the tongue and to me it is a mild to medium bodied ale.
