Galbraith's Brewing Company's Strong Ale is a robust and well-balanced brew that showcases the depth and complexity of the malt. This English-style strong ale pours a deep copper-amber color, with a dense, creamy head that leaves intricate lacing down the glass. The aroma is intense and complex, with a blend of caramel, roasted malt, ripe fruit (plum and cherry), and subtle hints of spice (clove and nutmeg). The flavor follows suit, with a full-bodied, malty palate that features a rich, biscuity foundation, balanced by a backbone of roasted cocoa and coffee notes. The fruity aromas translate into flavors of ripe plum and a touch of cherry, while a gentle spice character adds warmth and complexity. The finish is long and warming, with a lingering sweetness and subtle bitterness that stays on the tongue. This strong ale, with its 9.0% ABV, is a satisfying choice for those seeking a flavorful and invigorating beer. It pairs well with hearty dishes such as roasted meats, stews, and aged cheeses, and can also complement desserts with chocolate or caramel flavors.
