Bass Pale Ale

Brewed by Samlesbury (InBev UK - InBev)
Style: Premium Bitter/ESB
Preston, England

Amber colour with a strong hop aroma. Taste is full and lingers. Nice introductory beer for people that want to go beyond mass produced ales.

clear light amber. not a strong representative ale of england, but i’ll take this lighter ale over most american (perhaps what foster is to australia: i.e., not much). steady spring of carbonation. enjoyed this from a bottle on a much needed xmas break in stuart, fl.

on tap, almond colored pour, strong foamy head, aroma is caramel and some fruit, flavor is a nice bright bitterness with a clean slight metallic finish

Bottle. Clear amber pour topped by a diminishing white head. Smells of toffee and earthy English hops. Tastes of caramel and tobacco. This used to be my go to beer before I discovered craft beer, now it is merely OK.

on tap at fox and the hound in lewisville, tx. poured a nice amber with a white head and left some lacing on the glass. aroma was very sweet with malt, some citrus. flavor was exactly the same as the nose. a real decent brew overall, but nothing special.

On draft, ruddy hue, good carbonation with tiny off-white head. Current version in US has a light malty tang aroma leading to sour malt and some biscuit and nut flavors. Very thin body and weak finish.

Pours a perfect crisp amber with a thin fizzy white head that quickly fades to a skim and a ring that stays. Aroma is grassy, floral and citrus hops, straw, a little caramel and raw cereal grains. Flavor is cereal grain, caramel, straw, apple, floral hops, a little citrus, a sorta sour and nutty drying like slightly underripe walnuts. Finish is dry and slightly bitter with a grainy, almost adjunct taste to it. Body is thin and watery a bit high on carbonation. Not bad for a beer that is everywhere, though I have bought a few skunky sixers over the years.

bottle. puny (almost not there) off-white rocky head into dark golden body. aromas of light malts, light floral hops, and a touch of metal. flavor is initially moderate bitter and finishes light bittersweet. moderate finish duration. slightly dry mouthfeel. okay.
