The first brew produced by Alltech Lexington Brewing and Distilling Co.
Kentucky Ale® is described as a marriage between two classic beer styles, Irish Red Ale and English Pale Ale. With a light amber color, Kentucky Ale owes its body and character to select imported malts and a pinch of wheat malt for a rich, smooth taste.
Light amber in color, Kentucky Ale owes its unique body and character to select imported malts and a pinch of wheat malt for a rich, smooth taste.
The unique body and character of Kentucky Ale is heavily influenced by the water, drawn from aquifers in the limestone rock underlying the Bluegrass Region of Kentucky.

Bottle shared at a tasting at kerenmk’s place. Cloudy rusty deep golden to amber color. Aroma of stale hops, a bit floral and earthy and a bit of malt. Flavor has a bit of sweetish malt, a bit of caramel, a bit of fruitiness and a mildly bitter finish with a bit of stale hops. OK, pretty boring.

12oz bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a lightly cloudy, burnt orange. Aroma of floral hops and some citrus with a little caramel. Taste is light bitter. Citrus, floral hops and some caramel. Medium bodied with a slightly thick texture. Soft carbonation and a decently long finish. Overall, not bad. Nothing really special but quite drinkable.

Great American Beer Festival, 2012. Light amber color with a thin palate and mild malt flavor. It drinks easily enough, but the long description, it is very light and doesn’t have much to offer.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of madmitch76. Pours a hazy golden with a small off-white aroma. Odd licorice aroma. Medium body, heavy carbonation, again this slight licorice note, a whiff of metal - and nothing much else really. 301112

Bottle from Half Time. Pours light amber with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is bready with suggestions of brown sugar and floral hop. Med body. Flavor is almost treacle, but maybe toffee works better. Definitely some bitterness attempting to corral the malt. Finishes lightly on the sweet side. There is something that makes me think of oak. Perhaps underrated, tho not seriously so.
