Description
First and foremost, we love beer as much as you, it's why GT Ales was born. It started in 2013 from my garage at home, where we brewed on a lovely little 100litre set-up. Offering samples to friends and family, we were overwhelmed by the positive feedback and the resounding 'you should be selling this commercially', and so got samples out to local pubs, shops, restaurants and hotels. The response from customers' from the offset was amazing, although the nano set up was working to capacity to meet the demand. Not a bad problem to have, but we wanted to keep brewing and making our beers accessible to a wider audience.

500ml bottle conditioned: BB Nov 2017. Poured into a UK pint sleeve at home on 4th July 2017. A present from my father who now lives down in Devon and fairly close to the GT Ales brewery. A bit of the sediment got out of the bottle, so the amber body had a slight haze to it, the head was a huge bubbly affair, almost like a ’gusher’ so keen was it to get out the bottle. Hops first in the nose and taste, piney and citrusy: light malts add to the aroma and flavour also. Easy drinking and tasty, liked it.
