The Surfers Ale is a tasty, naturally cloudy pale ale (light, top-fermented beer) with fruity notes of grapefruit, tangerine and lychee. It has a full-bodied body with a pleasant but not too strong bitterness on the finish. That is why it reminds a little of a naturally cloudy beer and impresses with its high 'drinkability'.

Very heavy on the hops for a pale ale. But they are relatively pleasant. online beerwulf
