Beers similar to Aussie XPA

Extra Pale Ale·Canada·5.5% ABV·One of 47 Extra Pale Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Aussie XPA's tropical and fruity character. An extra pale ale hopped entirely with Australian varieties. Pale gold and clear, with a tropical nose of passionfruit, mango and pineapple over a light citrus lift. The malt base is thin and cracker-dry, deliberately staying out of the way, so the fruit sits in front from the first sip onward. Bitterness is moderate and clean, and the beer closes short and dry.
