hopIQ found 10 beers with the same toasty and caramel character as SPA - Special Pale Ale. Deep copper and medium-bodied, built on the English tradition. Caramel and apricot on the nose, biscuit and toasted malt through the middle, with a fruity yeast character rounding it out. Ontario-grown Cascade sets a subtle citrus bitterness on the finish rather than the resinous hop punch of a North American pale ale. First brewed in the mid-1980s and in the lineup ever since. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
