Black Hops Brewing

Pale Ale·Australia·4.4% ABV·One of 659 Pale Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Black Hops Pale Ale's citrusy and tropical character. The brewery's first canned beer and its best seller since launch. Light golden in colour, it balances a pale barley base against tropical hop aromas of passionfruit and citrus. Caramel Munich and Caramel Pils give the malt backbone a gentle biscuit and light caramel note, and wheat softens the mouthfeel. The finish turns clearly citrus-led, with grapefruit and orange peel and a moderate bitterness. Hops are Simcoe, Dr Rudi, Citra, Ella and El Dorado.
