Harvest Pale if you want to drink sessionable and stay sharp,
Pasteur Street Cyclo if you want more presence and substance.
Both hit the same IBU target at 38, so bitterness isn't the differentiator—it's the alcohol warmth and body. The 0.7% ABV gap might seem tiny on paper, but you'll feel it after the second pour. Harvest leans refreshment; Cyclo leans satisfaction.

Harvest Pale
Harvest Pale drinks like it was built for a long afternoon. There's a clean, almost tea-like bitterness that doesn't overstay its welcome, and the lighter body lets the pale malt backbone come through without heaviness. It's straightforward—no tricks, no fruit bombs—just solid American pale ale DNA executed lean. You could genuinely drink three of these and still feel present.
Pasteur Street Cyclo Pale Ale
Cyclo has more weight on the palate without becoming thick. The same 38 IBUs land differently here because there's more malt structure underneath to push back against the bitterness. You get a subtle caramel sweetness that Harvest doesn't offer, and the extra half-percent of alcohol adds a gentle warmth that makes this feel more like a deliberate pour than a casual refill.
