True Blue Pale Ale is probably more like what British drinkers would call a bitter than a pale ale. But we aim to provide a light, drinkable brew that can be enjoyed glass after glass without bloating your belly or slurring your speech. We use a combination of British pale malt, crystal malt, un-malted barley, and a touch of honey to create a complex malt flavor and mouth feel. In the brewing kettle we use Goldings and Fuggles hops to give our ale a classical British flavor and aroma. In the fermenter we maintain a temperature of 20°C until the ale yeast has completed conversion of all fermentable materials and retires to the bottom of the cone. Then the temperature is slowly lowered to near freezing to brighten the brew before packaging. This ale should be consumed at about 12 to 14°C to taste the subtle hop and malt flavors. True Blue Pale starts at a specific gravity of 1.055 and finishes at about 1.012 with an alcohol content of about 5% by volume.
