Our first release, Pale is brewed from a blend of specialty malts which add character and complexity to the flavour, and supply a rich cognac hue. Pale is bittered with American grown Cascade hops, and a late addition to the boil provides the citric floral notes which are released immediately after pouring, balanced with the toasty aromas of the crystal malt - a highly roasted malt variety. This spritzy sensation occurs again once it passes the palate, and is highlighted by a light-medium carbonation brought about by bottle conditioning.. A marmalade bitterness appears at the end of the palate. The structure of Pale is enhanced and smoothened by a period of aging at close to freezing temperatures. It works well with pate before dinner, or as a cleansing ale after dinner served with a selection of sharp and soft cheeses.
