Burton ale is a type of strong ale which is dark and sweet.[1][2] It is named after the brewing town of Burton-on-Trent.[3][4][5]
Burton ales were generally aged and needed cellaring for months before serving, and almost certainly had some degree of secondary fermentation going on during that time.[6] In London, the terms Burton ale and old ale were interchangeable, but compared to other old ales and barley wines Burton ale is distinctively dark, sweet and fruity.[7][8]
