The first of our 10 Years of Faith releases, celebrating a decade of the trailblazing Hazy Pale.

It’s got all the bright, citrus hop aroma and flavour you’d expect from a full dosage of Citra and Mosaic. But we’ve dialled up the amount of wheat, for a velvety texture and classic wheat beer appearance. A specially sourced German yeast takes place of our house strain, to bring those classic esters of banana, clove and pepper.

Faith in Mönchsbier is a well-balanced path between the Hazy Pale ales we’re known for and classic German tradition. Not that it meets the Reinheitsgebot. Prost!

Cloudy yellow with a tall white head. Citrus forward with wheat, banana, clove, coriander, and a touch of sweet fruits. Medium bodied. Finish has a nice spicy snap. It really leans into the tropical citrus aspect. A nice beer.

440ml can. Cloudy golden with a white head. Aroma of wheat, bready malts, banana foam sweets, citrus zest, clove. Taste of sweet bready wheaty malts, banana esters, zesty citrus, clove and peppery spice. Medium bodied, pillowy mouthfeel.
Such an underrated and underbrewed style in the UK, they did a good job with this one.
