The Ales of England

The "Ales of England" refers to traditional brewed beer types known as ales, which are characterized by fermenting at warmer temperatures using ale yeast, resulting in rich, complex flavors. Historically, ales have been a staple of English brewing, varying from pale ales and bitters to porters and stouts. They often feature a fuller body and more pronounced malt and hop characteristics compared to lagers. These ales are deeply rooted in England’s brewing heritage, with regional styles and brewing techniques reflecting local ingredients and culture. Today, English ales continue to be celebrated for their craftsmanship and diversity within the beer world.
