Camden Pale Ale
A pale ale built on American hops but tuned to British habits: at 4.0% it sits well below its transatlantic models in strength. Simcoe and Citra, backed by Perle, bring citrus and a touch of tropical fruit with a firm hoppy edge. Pilsner, wheat, light crystal and Munich malts give a slim body with a faint caramel tone. Hoppy, fruity and dry overall, it belongs to Camden's core range, comes in 330 ml cans and is poured on draught at the brewery's beer hall.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Camden Pale Ale
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.
