B&B John Lee Blues

This British Strong Ale presents a sophisticated and complex profile led by a deep caramel malt core. On the nose, it balances rich malty sweetness with distinctive fruity esters of ripe pear and orange zest, complemented by an intriguing spicy character. The palate is defined by its smooth maltiness, offering layers of toffee and caramel that easily override the restrained bitterness. Despite its medium body, the 6.4% ABV provides an evident, welcoming warmth that integrates well with the generous carbonation. The result is a balanced, elegant ale that honors traditional British strength while maintaining a bright, fruity lift through the finish.
