Sorry - this product is no longer available

"Wider availability of organic malts has made it possible for Samuel Smith's to produce a classic pale ale from all-organic ingredients. Developed in 2011 and 2012 after many test batches and tasting sessions; will replace Sam Smith's Organic Ale. A classic malt-accented, copper-colored pale ale in which subtle fruity esters from the Samuel Smith yeast strain interact with caramel flavors — from organic crystal malt — and fresh hops. Serve with dungeness crab salad, free-range herbed chicken, hummus, smoked salmon and masala. Serve in traditional Samuel Smith nonik." —importer

"Appearance: Bright and copper colored with sea foam-like off-white lace.


"Smell: Hint of hops with a light Jolly Rancher candy-like fruitiness.

"Taste: Medium bodied and a dryish mouth feel show on the palate, subdued fruitiness and a malty sweetness holds the front with a mellow biscuity malt taste. Hop bitterness and a slight husk flavour help to balance. A little grainy in the finish with a true pale ale dryness in the end.

"Notes: Clean to the tongue with lots of complexity, perfect quaffing material...A Pale Ale to reckon with." —Jason Alström, BeerAdvocate

"This classic English pale ale pours a clear, light mahogany hue with a small, coffee-colored head and a nice rim of lacing. A rich toasted malt core leads the way, with notes of caramel, raw sweet dough and baked apple adding complexity throughout. The medium-weight mouth is full and satisfying but remarkably clean thanks to assertive carbonation and a floral hop finish with an appropriate dryness." —Lauren Buzzeo, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

"Deep copper color with a manilla head. Inviting aromas of honeyed toasted English muffin and lemon curd with a crisp, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a satiny, exceptionally well balanced finish with the emphasis on herb bread and grassy, earthy hops. Very true to style and a pleasure to drink." —Beverage Testing Institute

Chimay Premiere (Red) Size: 25.4oz

00063
"The Chimay Red Cap, or 'Première', in 750 ml bottles, is the oldest of the Chimays. This Trappist beer possesses a beautiful coppery colour that makes it particularly attractive. Topped with a creamy head, it gives off a slight fruity apricot smell from the fermentation. The aroma felt in the mouth is a balance confirming the fruit nuances revealed to the sense of smell. This traditional Belgian beer is best savoured at cellar temperature (50 - 54 °F)." —brewer

Chimay Grande Reserve (Blue) Size: 25.4oz

00480
"The Chimay Blue Cap, 'baptized' 'Grande Réserve' in 750 ml bottles is a dark Trappist beer with a powerful aroma, the complex flavour of which improves across the years. It was first brewed as a Christmas beer, explaining the presence of a 'vintage'. This authentic Belgian beer, whose tinge of fresh yeast is associated with a light rosy flowery touch, is particularly pleasant. Its aroma, perceived as one enjoys it, only accents the delightful sensations revealed by the odour, all revealing a light but agreeable caramelized note. It is served ideally at cellar temperature (50 to 54 °F)." —brewer

Corsendonk Pater Dubbel Ale Size: 25.4oz

00590
"Brewed with all-natural ingredients, including Caramel, Pilsen and Munich barley malts, and Saaz, Kent and Hallertau hops. Beer authority Michael Jackson describes Corsendonk Pater Dubbel Ale as 'a strong, Burgundy-colored ale in the style of the classic Trappist brews of Belgium. Has a very distinctive bouquet: yeasty, fruity and slightly smoky. In palate, it has notes of port, raisins and black chocolate. Matures greatly with age, becoming softer, smoother and deeper in palate. Ideally, should be stored for at least a year, and could mature for at least five.'" —importer

Howler Head Banana Bourbon Whiskey Size: 750ml

38082
"Bananas gone crazy. Yeah that’s right – we said bananas! It’s blended with the finest Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey we could get our paws on. You’ve got a kick of oak, a whirl of sweetness, and some straight–from–the–jungle bananarama goodness. Some people said we were monkeying around. They said convention is not to be trifled with. We heard them. There are whole cities full of people not trifling with convention. For the rest of us: welcome to the jungle." —producer
