Bay Ale is a copper coloured, traditional ale with malt and hop aromas and a smooth and well-balanced flavour. Hoppy, yet malt-forward this ale strikes a great balance. Using Perle, Bobek and Willamette hops alongside a strong malt backbone this beer is both for savoring and thirst-quenching, depending on your mood.

Way too much foam. Wet malts, old muffy smell, caramel, nutty. Taste roasty, nutty, smooth, actually nice despite all the foam

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Magnum and Williamette hops. Aroma is bready malt, caramel, some toffee with a slight hint of dried fruits. Flavour is moderate sweet and bitter. Body is medium. A bit dull this one, mostly just crystal malts, not bad but it lacks character.

0.33 l can from 'SpeciaalBierPakket.nl', canned in August 2024. Clear, luscious ruhy with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, a little fruity aroma of grains, nuts, wet leaves, some caramel and hints of red fruits. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, slightly fruity taste of caramel, grains, nuts, some red fruits and a touch of wet leaves, followed by a short, gently bitter finish. Almost medium-bodied, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Pleasant ale, not very rich but rather quaffable.
