Ale is a type of beer that has been fermented using a certain method which results in a sweet, full-bodied and fruity taste. Like most beers it has a bittering agent but is made without the addition of hops.
What is the difference between beer and ale?
The difference in beer and ale is the way the drinks are fermented. Ale is created using top-fermentation at warm temperatures, whereas other beers use bottom-fermentation at colder temperatures.
Is ale an alcohol?
As ale is a type of beer, it is definitely an alcoholic drink. There are a few different varieties of ale including pale ale, brown ale, India ale, golden ale and plenty more. You can learn about the history and types of ale during one of the RedBalloon brewery tours and beer tasting experiences.
