While Pale Ale has its origins in England, our Americana has a distinct american profile with aromas from the most fresh american hops you can imagine. The refined balance between its dynamic bitterness and refreshing attributes make this Pale Ale an ideal companion for meat & pizza.

24 September 2019. At Mourelo, Rethymno (Crete). Shared with the lovely Anke! Pours hazy orange with a huge, slowly diminishing, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of biscuit, honey, ripe plum, orange, apricot, mango, cake. Taste is light to medium fruity sweet, ripe orange, mango & plum on a thick, biscuity & cake-like malty base; accents of bitter pink grapefruit, spices & herbs, yeasty tone. Dry, peppery & earthy hoppy finish, lingering orange, biscuit & yeast. Medium body, slick-oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Nice balancing bitterness in the end but too malty overall.

0,33 l bottle from Zero Cafe Bar, Kos. Pours out in a pale copper, small white head. Tropical fruity hop smell with some pale grain. Taste starts hopy, crisp bitterness. Low fruity but malty backbone. Nice and typical example of its kind.

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle. Clear, golden amber with a medium large, frothy, stable, white head. Sweetish, rather fruity-grassy aroma of pineapple, gooseberry, white grapes and lemon. Slightly sweetish, moderately bitter, intensely fruity-grassy taste of lemon, gooseberry, white grapes and lemon, followed by a short, quite bitter, grassy finish. Thin to medium body, rather effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Very nice!

Bottle as a gift from Silvester, thank you pal! This is my first craft from Greece. Looks great. Aroma is average. Tastes nice and hoppy, medium bitter, carbonation is quite high though. Good anyway.

Mixed fruity hoppy flavours of grapefruit and apricot. Rounded bitter sweet ending. Medium bodied. Enjoyed in friendly company under the Cretan sun. (Rethymnon 12.06.2017).
