Das Pale Ale hat seine Wurzeln in England. Es ist eine elegant gebraute Version des typisch britisch obergärig gebauten Bitters. Pale Ales enthalten zumeist wesentlich mehr Hopfen als andere Biere. Die Pale Ales wurden erstmals im 19 Jahrhundert gebraut um das Bier für den langen Seeweg nach Indien haltbar zu machen. Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde dieser Biertyp in der amerikanischen Craft-Brewer-Szene wiederauferlebt und durch das „Hopfenstopfen“ (Gabe des Hopfens im Lagerkeller) das Flavour des Bieres erhöht.

Im Antrunk dominante, aber angenehme Bittere, welche aber sehr schnell in den fruchtigen zitrusgeschmack übergeht. Im Abtrunk erinnernd an trockenen Beeren und sehr leichten Caramehl.

7.1/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5

(bottle, 33cl) Cloudy, orange-golden colour with a big and slightly off-white foamy head. Yeast-spicy, fruity and flowery hoppy aroma with notes of citrus and oranges, accompanied by delicately piney and sweaty notes. Moderately bitter and slightly sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a soft carbonation. Yeasty and mildly bready malty base with traces of caramel and a present hops character, including fruity and piney spicy notes, the latter getting stronger towards the moderately dry and bitter finish with a rounded malty sweetness. Balanced and more-ish Ale from Franconia. 30.VI.14
