Pompous Ass English Ale

◎ Appearance

Deep mahogany hue under a sturdy tan head that clings to the glass with visible lacing. The beer presents bright clarity with modest carbonation that maintains the foam collar throughout drinking. The color deepens slightly toward the edges, characteristic of the English Pale Ale style at 8 SRM.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with dried leaf and earthy undertones before transitioning to soft citrus notes. Malt sweetness provides a supporting layer beneath the herbal character. The North American hop blend imparts a subtle brightness that complements rather than dominates the aromatic profile.

◐ Taste

Malt sweetness leads on entry, developing into raisin and tea notes across the mid-palate with a subtle caramel undertone. The finish transitions to an earthy, citric hop character that drives the aftertaste without sharp bitterness. Soft carbonation and medium body maintain sessionability despite the complex flavor layering.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste lingers with earthy and citric hop notes that gradually fade to a clean, dry conclusion. Medium length and gentle carbonation leave the palate refreshed without astringency.

Serve at 7–10°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
