Notes / Commercial Description:
What we really want to write here is just Pale Ale… but that’s not very informative (nor should it be). We want to shout it at people. Get them excited. People nowadays rarely get excited about a pale ale. Pale Ale! This beer is a collaboration between Dugges Bryggeri and Cloudwater Brewing Co., Manchester, UK. We wanted to explore the cooperation between a soft, biscuity malt base and lots and lots of fruity hops. We wanted to make a modern pale ale staple. The one you have in your fridge at all times. The goto. The neo-session. The pale ale, pale ale, pale ale. Vienna malt and oats gives the base, American hops in abundance gives the treble. And in the middle, there’s just pure delight. Pale ale!
This beer is retired; no longer brewed.

Slightly hazy yellow color with off-white head. Aroma has sweet, fruity notes like pineapple and overripe peaches. Taste is quite juicy with tropical fruits and some grassy hops on the finish. Medium to light body, medium plus carbonation. Overall it’s a really nice, juicy pale ale.

On tap at Bishop's Aems in Malmö.
Pours a slightly hazy straw color, with white, fluffy head.
The smell is very fruity, peaches and apricots duking it out over a bit of grass.
The taste is also very fruity and refreshing, apricot and peaches followed by a nice, soft hop bitterness. Hides the alcohol well, and really drinkable.
Body is light to medium, a bit sticky, with a good level of carbonation.
Overall, a very good APA, refreshing but flavorful.
