Beer 185 - Samuel Smith's Organic Best Ale

Bottled by Samuel Smith Old Brewery, Tadcaster, England. Product of the United Kingdom.  Samuel Smith's brews at a small traditional British brewery, the oldest brewery in Yorkshire.  Bought at Whole Foods market, Westheimer, Houston and drunk at home in Katy with dinner of beef tips and rice as part of our Nutrisytem diet.

The bottle says "A delicately flavored golden ale in which subtle fruity esters from the Samuel Smith yeast strain interact with a background of maltiness and fresh hops.  Brewed with well water(the original well sunk in 1758 is still in use), organic malted barley, organic hops and yeast.  Fermented in 'stone Yorkshire squares'"

A delightful beer, well balanced, easy to drink and full of flavor.  This would make an excellent session beer.
