Nimbus Strong Pale Ale (5.0% abv) resembles the famous Kölsch beers of Cologne: pale in colour, soft in mouthfeel, but strong in alcoholic content. Our rendition has a rich, warming hop and a memorable malt character. A small addition of around 5% malted wheat to the grist gives this beer much of its body and softness. The aroma is of pronounced fresh-fruit hops, together with a sweet nuttiness. On the palate this beer has a verdant, almost vegetal, hop presence. Nimbus also exhibits lovely malt character of fresh bread and almonds. This beer has understated power: delicate, complex and more-ish despite its relative alcoholic strength.

    Bottle. Golden colour with latge white head. Hoppy aroma with malt background. Hoppy, malty and fruity taste. Nicely balanced, medium bodied, with the feel of a strong session beer. Nice.
