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.

Draught, 4.4% at the Black Sheep. The flavour is caramelly, but not as boring as many other red ales. Nicely rotated also. Dark copper colour, seems clear. Creamy tan head.

Draft at the Oslo Bar in Galway. Pours red with a frothy, white head. Aroma is full of tart, fruity notes. Noticeable lemon. Taste is mildly sweet, full of bread, caramel and herbal tea. Dry and mildly bitter at the finish. Sessionable. Good.

Draft at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark red with medium-high brownish foam, fine. Aroma is malty roasted, some feeling of prune. Body is light with moderate carbonation. Taste is moderately sweet, with a hint of roasted bitterness. Finish is just a little longer than average.
