Beer Description

“American Strong” is part of a broad category of American ales based on English style beers but made with unique ingredients which set them apart. The Strong refers to those with 7% alcohol or greater. American Strong is sometimes referred to as “double IPA”.

Nothing better illustrates American pride and patriotism than the story of Old Abe. And nothing better exemplifies the “American Strong” category of pale ale than Old Abe American Ale.

Although it registers at 95.6 IBU (International Bitterness Units), Master Brewer Charles Boucher uses oven dried pale malts to produce a sweet balance of malt with a faint buttery taste. The four grain, three hop recipe creates an unusually creamy but fullbodied beer with a dark amber color and a medium lace. It has a lactic berry malt aroma and the finish is slightly “hoppy” but very crisp.
