The beer that inspired this crazy journey, ours is a hop driven Pale Ale bursting with flavour and aroma. Full-bodied yet refreshing, the bitter finish will leave your tastebuds craving more.
We were born to make Pale Ale, a style that was little known in Australia when we started, but is now much loved. Back in the day there were two hop varieties coming out of the North West of the US that really took our fancy; Cascade and Chinook hops. These hops packed an addictive punch and gave rise to the super hoppy American Pale Ale, a style that inspired us back then and still inspires us today.
Since day one, we have brewed our Pale using whole hop cones, sourced straight from the US directly to our breweries (something pretty unique) and use our hop back to extract those beautiful, hoppy aromas and delicate bitterness. Preservative and additive free, our Pale Ale is live yeast conditioned, in the bottle (after filling) for unmatched freshness and character and takes about six weeks from brewing to be released.

33 cl bottle @ Olut Expo Finland 2014, BBE 26.01.2015
Aroma has apricot, some grainy malt and some minerals. Perhaps distant urinal tones too. Flavour has minerals, some malty tones, apricot and grapefruit. Easy to drink but no great feelings here.

Bottle at home. Has a slightly hazy orange color, with a light beige foam head. A fruity aroma with notes of orange, mango, grass, fruity hops, pale malt and citrus fruits. A little more careful than expected. The taste is also fruity and slightly sweet. In an otherwise somewhat dry aftertaste there�s some freshly cut grass and fruity hops, and also a bit hay. Mouth feel is soft and smooth and has a medium bitterness. This is a solid, balanced and fruity pale ale.

Nose is yeast, soft peach. Taste is a little bland, soft hops, herbal slightly floral notes, slight mint in the soapy finish. It’s very forgettable, I assume the stella ratings means it travels poorly, and is better on tap in it’s county of origin. Forgettable.

A very inspired floral and citrus aroma. Fresh citrus fruit flavor, and the bitterness is nicely balanced with proper malt for an APA. Very enjoyable. I’d say this one lived up to its hype.
