Collaboration with Smoke & Barrel. The "International Pale Ale" style is defined by ingredients of far flung origin. This burnished golden ale consists of British Pale malt, a hint of Belgian specialty malt, and flaked oats for a medium body and creamy mouthfeel. There is a slight peppery spice from the Belgian yeast strain, and big peach, passion fruit, and citrus aromas from the Australian Galaxy hops. Celebrate craft beer’s worldwide appeal with the Ambassador!

Had this as "Ambassador International" (the description here says "International Pale Ale", so I’m assuming these are the same. Poured a slightly hazy golden yellow color with a medium sized, nice looking white head. Aroma was juicy hops with a decent amount of yeasty, bready notes. Flavor was light resin, sweet grapefruit, pineapple juice. Really nice.
