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.

Tap @ Titi Twister, Bordeaux. Dark amber with a small head and a glow. Ordinary red ale in the main, not particularly bad but nothing outstanding here either.
