- London Pride
Just as its name suggests, this brand is full of pride. But you don’t have to be in London to feel the pride.
This beer has a creamy beige which evaporates quickly leaving no glass lacing. I gaze that is the same way it evaporates the stress in your mind.
In a barely lit room, London Pride is copper looking. But in the presence of full light, the brand is dark golden! I think I don’t have to remind you the status one gets in the society for being associated with gold.
London Pride has a dark maltiness aroma that is mixed with hops and brown bread’s taste. In your first few sips, you will experience a silky feeling in your mouth.
But as you wind up, the feeling will disappear and leave you a smooth feeling, instead. So be smooth for once in your lifetime by taking a bottle of London Pride
- Abbot Ale
The first thing that you will see once Abbot Ale is placed on the table is the work “Abbot Ale” on the neck and the lower part of the bottle. You will then see a short paragraph.
Very few people read the paragraph, not because they intentionally chose to do so, but because the attractive beer’s smell can’t allow them. I mean who can resist the concentrated aroma of malt accompanied with that of hop and malted barley.
As for taste, Abbot Ale has fruity and bitter tastes. However, the bitterness disappears within no time. To cut a long story short, grab a bottle and prove it yourself.
