APA
Big, punchy tropical hop character is what this pale ale is about. The hops are picked in season from the best the USA has to offer, with Mosaic and Citra in the lead and Kush in the mix too. An oat-heavy malt bill gives it a hazy, light and fluffy body that feels almost cloud-like, and at around 5% it is made for sessions. It was last poured on cask and draught in September 2026.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for APA
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
