Samuel Smith India Ale

"Brewed with well water (the original well at the Old Brewery, sunk in 1758, is still in use, with the hard well water being drawn from 85 feet underground);
best malted barley and a generous amount of choicest aroma hops; fermented in ‘stone Yorkshire squares’ to create an exceptionally full-flavoured complex ale
with an abundance of maltiness and fruity hop character.

The label on the bottle is based on Samuel Smith’s Victorian letterhead when the brewery was a contractor to Her Majesty Queen Victoria’s forces.

Best served at about 51°F (11°C).

5% ABV"

This is one of my favorite brands, especially the oatmeal stout. I like how you composed this. V

it is 35C/96F right now according to the back porch thermometer, so this IPA looks very appealing..

An interesting bit of history. I like IPA ( not that that is important).
