Description
Old Abbey Ales was founded in 2013 and brewed its first batch of beer at our Abbotsford facility in March of 2015. We have been crafting exceptional award-winning craft beer since that time. At Old Abbey Ales our award-winning Head Brew Master, skillfully crafts each small batch of beer by hand. This produces what we believe, are some of the finest beers in the market. As an artistic crafter, our Brewmaster, Steve is always looking to create new beers with the most unique, freshest and finest ingredients he can source to purchase locally. We take pride in supporting our local farmers and strive to support our local economy.

Draught at the brewery
Blond color, hazy. Aroma of freshly cut weeds (in Italian, ’ monete del Papa’), and light lime. Moderate acidity, not as much lemony or tart or lactic as expected though, and it seems to be fermented with some fruit juices; the salt is subdued.
Atypical, not bad.

Dark amber color, hazy. The aroma is appley. It has some malt flavor, some caramel, some cardboard; correct bitterness, but it has some vegetables, and I suspect some acetaldehyde, and it’s rather dry and astringent n the final.
Imprecise, not too pleasant.

Cloudy blond color. Light candied fruity touch, not even evident to be pineapple; and no wheat beer flavor. Low bitterness. So it’s quite pointless.

Cloudy light orange color. Some aroma of grapefruit zest. Dry mouthfeel, moderate acidity, a lot of grapefruit juice. It’s like drinking grapefruit juice, without the sweetness, and with some bitterness; and a hint of chili peppers. Not too bad, not particularly interesting either, but I understand the value of experimenting.

Murky light brown color. It’s moderately sweet, it has herbaceous hops, light apple aroma; I wouldn’t think there is barrel. But you are basically drinking a yeast soup. Not good.

Hazy bright golden color. Crossover between a Belgian Ale and a Saison, since it has a more robust body than a Saison, more malt flavor and just moderate spices.
Pleasant easy beer.

Dark brown, old ale taste, sweet, soy sauce, and sticky molasses but not as complex as you’d think.

Draught at the brewery. Hazy tan. Peachy nose, light fruity esters, pear and honey. Not a lot of saison but the hop gives the right impression.

Golden. Nice fruity, orangey hops but subtle phenols, too. Bitter, chewy pale malts.
