🌍 United Kingdom · American Pale Ale · One of 212 American Pale Ales in hopIQ

Castle Rock's Harvest Pale is a rare thing: a sub-4% pale ale that punches above its weight. Brewed with Centennial, Cascade, and Chinook—a trio of American classics—it delivers citrus snap and gentle pine without the alcohol warmth. At 30 IBU and a light 3.8%, it's crushable, balanced, refreshing. Multi-award winning for a reason.
