Canada Bay XPA
An extra pale ale hopped with Australian-grown Cascade and Galaxy, named after the bay the brewery sits beside. Citrus and stone fruit lead, light rather than concentrated, and the malt profile is held back so that the hops carry the beer on their own. At 4.2 percent it stays in session territory, but the finish is more bitter than the strength suggests.
