Old Ale is one of the strongest traditional varieties of the classic British ale. This full-bodied beer is characterized by a complex aroma of fruity esters, caramel, nuts and toffee, made even richer by the addition of oak chips the beer matured on.

Butelka 330 z datą ważności 2.02.2018. BARWA: ciemno miedziane dość mętne z dużą ilością drobin. PIANA: koloru przybrudzonej bieli, niska, drobno pęcherzykowa, szybko znika. AROMAT: słodki, orzech włoski z wanilią, toffi ( coś jak w pralinach), ładnie ułożony alk ( delikatne nuty whiskey). SMAK: karmelowo-likierowe, drewno, średnia alkoholowa szlachetna goryczka - rozgrzewająca. Dość pełne, niskie wysycenie, nie jest to typowy Old Ale, beczka dużo wniosła ( trochę przykryła charakter Old Ale , ale zrobiła robotę -,bo samo w sobie jest dobre i charakteystyczne, tak na szybko nawet nie wiem z czym porównać). Zaskoczyło pozytywnie.

Medium to big sweet flavour, some creamy toffee, more woody character, cherry, caramel. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, sticky sweet, with more woody character, ripe berries, more caramel. So so overall.

Barwa ciemnomiedziana, klarowne, piana w kolorze zabrudzonej bieli, dość niska, niespecjalnie trwała. W aromacie karmel, suszone owoce, lakier do drewna. W smaku wyraźnie słodowe, karmelowe, nuty toffi i suszonych owoców a przede wszystkim dębina i to w stylu impregnatu do drewna, która zdecydowanie jest na pierwszym planie. Wysycenie niskie do średniego, goryczka niska, po ogrzaniu minimalnie alkohol wyłazi, dobra treść. Wszystko, co obiecuje etykieta, to w tym piwie się znajduje. Trudny i "ciężko przyswajalny" styl, ale niemniej ciekawy.
