A true India pale ale - It has strong hop aroma and flavour, a richy malty, bitter taste and is pale in colour.
Background: During the 19th Century, Burton became famous for brewing the best beer for export to India. Sparkling spring water, a robust strain of yeast, high levels of hops and maturation in oak casks all ensured that the beer survived the three -monthsea journey to India. The result was a beer with a tangy, clean bitterness and wonderfully refreshing character. |
