Export-Style Stout

Ale is a type of beer brewed using a warm fermentation method, resulting in a sweet, full-bodied and fruity taste. historically, the term referred to a drink brewed without hops.as with most beers, ale typically has a bittering agent to balance the malt and act as a preservative. ale was originally bittered with gruit, a mixture of herbs or spices boiled in the wort before fermentation. later, hops replaced gruit as the bittering agent.
