Spital Pale Ale
Regensburg's Spitalbrauerei dates back to the medieval herb gardens, and their Pale Ale carries that sense of craft forward. Citrus and stone fruit from the hops land cleanly against a malt base that knows how to support them — 6.5% and 35 IBU work in careful balance. Approachable innovation from a brewery that's been at it for centuries.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Spital Pale Ale
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.
