Commercial Description:
Bulldog is an award winning strong ale that was first brewed for the export market in 1947. The traditional recipe and maturing process of "warm conditioning" which takes place after fermentation, has been deliberately retained to preserve the strength and quality. The beer is dry hopped and the distinctive mellow flavour of Bulldog Strong Ale allowed to develop slowly.

This stuff is all over central Italy. Thin palate. Low carbonation. A little sweet. Dark yellow, lots of malt, minimal roasted flavor. Easy enough to drink, and a nice change from the cheap lagers I was finding everywhere.

A clear light amber colored beer, with a light beige foamed head. The aroma is malty sweet with notes of fruit and caramel. The taste is bittersweet, with fruits, like apple. The aftertaste is a little bittersweet with some fruits.
