Answer : ALE
ale – n
a general name for beer made with a top fermenting yeast; in some of the United States an ale is (by law) a brew of more than 4% alcohol by volume
Ale, fermented malt beverage, full-bodied and somewhat bitter, with strong flavour and aroma of hops. Popular in England, where the term is now synonymous with beer, ale was until the late 17th century an unhopped brew of yeast, water, and malt, beer being the same brew with hops added. Modern ale typically is bittered with hops, rather than gruit, a blend of herbs that historically was used to add bitterness to ales. Modern ales also usually are brewed with water rich in calcium sulfate, are made with top-fermenting yeast, and are processed at higher temperatures than the lager beers popular in the United States. Pale ale has up to 5 percent alcohol content; the darker strong ale contains up to 6.5 percent.
