Redwell Extra Pale Ale

Tap to rate

A clear, light and very smooth pale ale in the American mould at 4.6%, built on extra pale Norfolk barley malt with a little caramel malt. American hops, Cascade and Citra among them, set a tropical-fruit aroma; the palate adds zesty citrus and a berry note. The fruit runs deep without weighing the beer down. One of the brewery's most popular beers, in the range since 2016 and sold in kegs and cans.
