A classic Pale Ale this is a product of one of the UK’s oldest breweries. Whitbread Pale Ale is malty, almost sweet, with a moderate caramelly bready taste, but balanced with very moderate hops.
Whitbread Pale Ale is pleasant to drink and recommended for those who think they don’t like darker beers.
Whitbread Pale Ale goes great with food and even cheese!
In 2018 brewing was transferred from Wellpark to Windsor & Eton.

Bottled. Amber colour, not much head. Aroma is raisins, sweet caramel, some wood as well as mild vanillaish and sugary notes. Flavour is quite much the same. Very vintage.

550ml bottle. Amber with a thin white head;musty hop aroma; quite prickly in the mouth; beardy yeast flavour with some caramel, slight vinegar acidity. Rather flat for a traditional English pale ale, but drinkable.

Small white head. Light brownish body with carbonation. Light grain and caramel aroma with roasty notes. Dry grain and straw taste with caramel notes. Aftertaste is the same. Sharpish, fizzy mouthfeel. A bit watery. Decent, but unexciting. (0.33l bottle at the Lord Clyde.)

Bottle at The Three Judges, Glasgow. ABV is 3.4%. Amber colour, decent head. Moderate aroma of cellar, dust and caramel. Thin mouthfeel. The flavour has toffee and biscuits, with barely acceptable hops in the finish.
