Oceania

Canada·India Pale Lager
Tap to rate

A pale lager hopped the way an ale would be, clear straw gold under a bright white head. Galaxy and Motueka push passionfruit, peach and a sharp lime note into the aroma, with lemongrass underneath. The malt base stays thin and cracker-dry so the hops sit in front, the bitterness is moderate and clean, and the finish is crisp with citrus zest lingering.

◌ Aroma

Galaxy and Motueka hops deliver a vibrant aromatic profile centered on passionfruit and peach, with a distinctive sharp lime zest cutting through. Lemongrass notes provide herbal depth beneath the fruit-forward character, creating a layered and complex nose. The malt base remains subdued, allowing hop character to dominate.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and bright, with citrus notes arriving immediately on the palate. The thin, cracker-dry malt foundation keeps the beer light and allows moderate, clean bitterness to integrate seamlessly with tropical and stone fruit flavors. Mid-palate remains dry without astringency, letting hop character shine through cleanly.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
