New Beer Blog Bell’s Midwestern Pale Ale

In this beer blog, we are going to get into another beer, which is Midwestern Pale Ale, from Bell’s Brewery.  If you read my earlier beer blog posts, you know the history of this craft brewery.  If you have not, please, read them to get to know this midwest craft brewery.  Let us get into this beer from Bell’s Brewery.

It has a copper color with a white head that fades over time.  The smell has a citrus notes with a slight lemon notes.  The taste has a carbonated citrus notes with a dry hop finish.  It is pretty drinkable.

Here is a description from their website (www.bellsbeer.com):

Brewed with barley from our farm in central Michigan, Midwestern Pale Ale stands apart from the model of completely hop-dominated pale ales, offering a noticeable degree of malt body to counter the hop bitterness. A blend of floral & herbal hop notes provide the aromatic & flavor highlights, alongside the distinctive contribution of our house ale yeast. A crisp bitterness finishes the experience without being harsh.

Alcohol by Volume: 5.2%
Original Gravity: 1.050
Shelf Life: Six months
Dates Available: Year-round
Available Packages: Bottles, draft

In the end, this is a great pale ale.  It is not the greatest but it is not below average.  It is very hard finding this beer in date.  I know I went to several stores and I have been finding it out of code.  It is a newer brand to their every day line up.  I do not think many people have try it yet.  If they did, they did not like it and sales have slow way down for pull through at retail.  It is not too hoppy but hoppy enough to make the hopheads happy.  I will be looking for a fresh six-pack of beer.  I recommend you trying this beer.  Go get some!  Drink it!  Enjoy it!  Metal it!  \m/

Cheers!

New Beer Blog Bells Pale Ale

While in Michigan, we are going to sample out a local beer from Bells Brewery Pale Ale.  Thank you to my sister for picking up a six-pack while I was in town.  If you read my earlier blog on their Two Heart, you know a little something on this brewery.  If you have not, please, go and read the first part of that post.  Let us get into beer.

Bells Pale Ale is a yellow color without a head on the beer. It has a slight citrus smell to the beer. The taste is a sweet carbonation grapefruit with a dry bitter aftertaste.  It is pretty drinkable.

Closing, I know this brewery pretty well and had several of their beers.  I went back home to see friends and family and check out a few breweries in Michigan.  This beer has the nice English style to this Pale Ale.  It is a little bit more hoppier than the normal English Pale Ale.  It has a nice flavor and pretty good balance for a beer.  I really enjoy drinking this beer but it is not one of my favorite beers.  I believe that this  brewery makes some better beers.  They are always finding new beers to brew.  Go get some!  Drink it!  Enjoy it!  Metal it!  \m/

Cheers!
