Bass Pale Ale

Introduced: 1777

Beer Category/Style: English-style pale ale

Taste Profile: Bass is a full-flavored ale that is still brewed according to its original recipe. Select malts, aromatic hops and water rich in essential salts and minerals combine to give Bass its slight burnt roast aroma and high-quality, full-bodied flavor.

Ingredients/Brewing: Bass is brewed with two strains of traditional ale yeast to produce a complex, nutty, malty taste with subtle hop undertones and a beautiful chestnut hue. Bass is 5.1 percent alcohol by volume (ABV).

How to Serve: Try pairing Bass with smoky poultry dishes and pasta. The beer should always be served in its special tri-glass to enhance the flavor and presentation. Enjoy Bass alone or as part of an authentic Black & Tan – Bass Pale Ale in its signature tri-glass, layered with a stout beer.

Interesting Facts: The original English Pale Ale and England’s first trademark, Bass has been embraced by trail-blazers since 1777. The brand has been painted by Manet, fought over by Napoleon and was served on the Titanic.
