Bass (InBev)

This beer is an old standard English ale. It has quite the history. This brew goes back to 1777. Apparently at some point their was a split between the brand owner and brewer. From the looks of it, Interbrew (now InBev) has owned it since 2000. It looks like InBev brews all of the bottles and some kegs themselves (if you can go by Wikipedia's Bass site).

General Thoughts
I know I like this, so I won't spend much time writing about it. It's weird trying one of the old standards and thinking about it. It was served in an incredibly frosty, tall mug.

Look and Smell: Amber color. It smelled malty with earthy hops. It had a white bubbly head.

Taste: It was sweet with some bitter. The after taste was pretty sweet too. Not the most complex beer, but there is something simple and clean about it.

So, bass.com is a site completely devoted to Black and Tans....yeah.

The InBev site has the description below:
The legendary status of Bass is symbolized by its iconic red triangle, recognized as the first registered trademark in the United Kingdom.

Bass is the most famous English ale in the world, and has been brewed in Burton, England since 1777. It is a full-flavored ale that is still brewed to an original recipe, using only the finest ingredients and the experience of generations. It is brewed with two strains of yeast to produce a complex, nutty, malty taste with subtle hop undertones, and which has widespread appeal to repertoire drinkers and beer lovers around the world.

The brand has had an incredible pedigree for centuries. It has been painted by Manet, fought over by Napoleon, and served on the Titanic. Throughout history, it has inspired greatness. It challenges consumers today to reach for more, to reach for greatness with Bass.
