Pacific Mid
A Pacific ale brewed at mid strength, where the usual risk is a thin palate. The brewery works against that with a broader malt bill, which leaves a soft, faintly sweet base under the hops. A dry hop of Amarillo and Galaxy supplies the tropical fruit and citrus the style is known for, and the bitterness stays gentle throughout. The beer is light and quenching, and the finish is short and clean rather than dry.
