Speight's Pale Ale is based on a 1949 Speight's Brewery recipe. It has a distinctive golden hue and follows the classic Pale Ale style delivering a distinctive hop aroma. Generous amounts of New Zealand SAAZ HOPS are added late in the boil. This gives full tropical fruit notes, which complement the high temperature flavours from the open gyle fermentation. This Speight's Pale Ale is fermented in KAURI GYLES - open-topped wooden fermentation vats which are lined with beeswax. Small volume and labour intensive, these open shallow vessels help to bring out the seamless character and full aromas of the range. ONLY ONE other brewery in the world is known to still use kauri gyles. IT MATCHES WELL with tangy seafood dishes or oven-roasted chicken, as well as offering a superb contrast to spicy ethnic foods.
