Dessert Ales

Have you heards of such a thing as dessert ales?

Nor had I until today this is something that I shall have to investigate.

I suspect it's only been on the market as an idea for only a short times because I am sure that I would have heard about before now.

I wonder if it's going to be a growing trend like IPA's are?

I hope so anything that increase choice and taste is always in my mind a good idea.

So I shall look out for dessert real ales and report back when I have tried some.
