Blue Lady Pale
A dry-hopped pale ale infused with a tea blend from an Edinburgh tea merchant. The brewery likens the tea to Earl Grey with grapefruit in place of bergamot, and its listing mentions grapefruit oil and marigold flowers. Pilot calls the result intensely floral and moreishly tannic; hoppy and aromatic complete the house keywords. Oats and wheat sit alongside barley in the grist. 5.0%, first brewed in 2017 and returning regularly.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Blue Lady Pale
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.
