Empire Pale is matured for a minimum of three months in the brewery to replicate the length of a sea journey from England to India in the 19th century. The beer is then bottled with live yeast and will continue to improve and mature under glass.

Sherbert aroma with a citric zing. Quite a cloudy appearance with a short lasting head after the initial explosion out of the bottle. The lemon flavour overpowers the bitterness. Overall I was expecting better from the beer.

Rich fruity peachy and some grassy aromas. Hazy gold-amber and large off-white bubbly head. Sharp and acidic in the mouth, more peach fruit in the flavor. Med bitter finish but not really strongly hopped at all. Strong alcohol presence. Messy.
