Description according to label:

In the 19th century there was a considerable trade in ale from Britain to India. The land of spice was Britain's major export market. The heavy hop levels of these pale ales shipped on the long voyage to India naturally preserved the ale and complemented the flavourful and exotic cuisine of the East. Samuel Smith's India Ale is characterised by the colour of a golgen sunset, a refined maltiness and an emphasis on the aroma and flavour from Britain's best hop gardens.

Brewed with well water (the original well sunk in 1758 is still in use, with the hard well water being drawn from 85 feet underground), malted barley, yeast and hops. Fermented in 'stone Yorkshire squares' to create an exceptionally full-flavoured complex ale with an abundance of maltiness and fruity hop character.
