About This Beer
Abbeydale Absolution Golden Ale is a shining example of balance and drinkability. At 5.3% ABV, this golden ale combines a gentle malt base with subtle hop bitterness and a touch of sweetness, making it exceptionally smooth. Layers of tropical fruit and light citrus notes add complexity without overpowering the palate. Certified Gluten Free Beer and vegan friendly — meaning no animal products or by-products are used during brewing — Absolution delivers the same great taste to more drinkers, catering to both gluten-free and vegan lifestyles while staying true to its traditional roots.
