Samuel Smith’s India Ale is brewed at The Old Brewery in Tadcaster, North Yorkshire. Using well water (the original well at the Old Brewery, sunk in 1758, is still in use, with the hard well water being drawn from 85 feet underground), best malted barley and a generous amount of choicest aroma hops the ale is fermented in stone Yorkshire squares to create an exceptionally full-flavoured complex ale with an abundance of maltiness and fruity hop character. The label on the bottle is based on Samuel Smiths Victorian letterhead when the brewery was a contractor to Her Majesty Queen Victorias forces.[#intro]An exceptionally full-flavoured & complex ale with an abundance fruity hop character…[/intro]
