Last night saw the launch of a signature ale from a new local brewery, Angel Ales.
After fifteen trial brews were created to gauge feedback from seasoned imbibers, brewers Nick Pritchard and Andy Kirk decided their new ale was ready to be tasted by the parched masses.
Angel Ale (4.1%) is an extremely pale and intensely hoppy creation. Crisp flavours of grapefruit and lime citrus dominate the pallet, furthermore the beer is also light enough to warrant successive pints. Definitely a beer to be sought-after by hop lovers.
The launch night was held at that characterful real ale emporium, the Waggon & Horses, Halesowen and was lively as ever. Over 18 gallons of Angel Ale was quaffed in the first three and a half hours, which is a testament to the hard work put in by the brewers in creating something so palatable.
Angel Ales is brewed from a former chapel of rest on Furlong Lane in Halesowen.
