Hailed by the late beer writer Michael Jackson as ‘one of the great characters of the beer world’, Abbot Ale is brewed for quality of the highest order. Abbot is an irresistible ale with masses of fruit characters, a malty richness and superb hop balance. It is brewed longer to a unique recipe, which makes it the full-flavoured, smooth and mature beer it is today.

Color caoba, con destellos cobrizos. Espuma blanca y compacta, de buena retención. Carbonatación media-baja y de brbuja fina. Textura acuosa pero agradable.
Aromas muy suaves, a malta tostada, pan y un notas a lúpulo. En boca bien equilibrada, sin ningún sabor que destaque. Maltosa con notas frutales y toque de caramelo.
