Chico is a true American classic — a small batch pale ale brewed with plenty of love thats sure to charm you with its Cascadian nostalgia.

We brewed this “go-to” beer with a base of pale barley malt and added just a touch of light crystal malt for some depth and subtle sweetness that is met and balanced by smooth yet assertive hop bitterness.

Chico was hopped in the mash with Cascade hops, then again 4 more times throughout the boil and whirlpool with more deliciously fruity and floral Cascade.

We get notes of pink grapefruit zest, orange marmalade, fragrant Spring flowers, fresh pine, biscuit crackers, and orange blossom honey.
