Monterey
Monterey is a California-style pale ale from Bath Ales, hopped with three American varieties and brewed to 3.9%, which puts it at the light end for the style. Pine and tropical fruit lead both aroma and palate. The beer pours golden, and its name points to Monterey Bay on the Californian coast.
