🌍 Canada · Light Ale · One of 1 Light Ales in hopIQ

Alexander Keith's Light Ale hails from Canada's historic Alexander Keith's Brewery, established in Halifax in 1820. This sessionable light ale presents a pale golden hue with a clean, crisp aroma of light grain and subtle malt sweetness. The palate is refreshingly smooth and dry with gentle malt notes and a whisper of hop bitterness, finishing light and thirst-quenching with minimal alcohol warmth.
