Beers similar to Sunshine

Extra Pale Ale·Australia·4.5% ABV·One of 43 Extra Pale Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Sunshine's citrusy and hoppy character. Sunshine is the lightest beer of the permanent range, an extra pale ale that pours clean and very pale under a fluffy white head. The malt bill is deliberately restrained so the American and New Zealand hops carry the beer: fresh citrus and a subtle pine note meet ripe stonefruit on the nose, with lychee, overripe mango and citrus peel following on the palate. The body is smooth and the bitterness mild and refreshing rather than assertive.
