Ghost Ship is a ghostly pale ale which takes its inspiration from Adnams 600-year-old haunted pub, The Bell. Brewed with a selection of malts - Pale Ale, Rye Crystal and Cara. We use Citra, and a blend of other American hop varieties to create some great citrus flavours.

0.44 l can shared at home, thanks to my family. Pours clear golden with thick head. Nose is surprisingly vivid hoppy, and so is the taste. Not too complex, but a well made piece. Light bodied with average carbo.

Аромат очень крутой, ощущается много хмеля класического. Много травы, немного цитруса и корочки от фруктов, намека на лесные ассоциации. Цвет темно бордовый, пенка нормальная и стойкая. Вкус тоже очень сбалансированный и яркий для масс маркета. Много хмеля при этом сильной горячи нету. Все это с цитрусовыми нотами и корочкой от них. При глотке больше травянистости со смолой и намеками на костер. В целом очень неплохой эль для маркетов.

Hazy amber. Aroma is noble hops grassy hops light fruit lemon light bread. Taste is slightly sweet with nice bitter hop profile with lots of grass. A bit rough but still quite enjoyable with a long herbal finish. Easy on the tongue.

Bottle 0,5ltr: Clear copper coloured brew with an gentle American approach with an hoppy citrus taste. Nice label with boat and ghostly theme.
