Default Aloe problems

The aloe has not been caught by a cold spell but it could as K suggested got
a little dry, it was out in the hot weather we had a few weeks ago. Seeing
as how the plant is from the Canaries does it not get baked by the hot sun
out there.
There are fresh new green leaves coming up from the base underneath the
discoloured ones so all might not be lost.
Thanks for your help

Bought an aloe plant in Canaries a couple of years ago, it has grown to
about 1 ft talland until this spring was growing very well. I always over
winter in conservatory and with the warm weather thought it time I put it
outside, now instead of a healthy green colour a lot of the leaves are
turning a dirty brown colour, there are some smaller leaves that are green
but am worried that these will also turn colour.
Anyone any idea what could be happening, it would be a shame to lose it
after it appeared to be thriving.
Thanks for any help.
