Brewed in collaboration with Cathay Pacific, Betsy is a Pale Ale handcrafted for 35,000 feet.
500,000 rivets. 700,000 parts. 6,000 craftsmen. That was the dedication that went into building a Douglas DC-3 in the 1940s – including Betsy, Cathay Pacific’s very first aircraft.
This beer is a homage to the heart and soul poured into the original Betsy. Flavours of mandarin orange, lovingly tuned for altitude; with the finest barley and hops, carefully balanced for depth and aroma.
The result is a handcrafted Pale Ale that tastes great anywhere, but really takes off at 35,000 feet.

Sweet & malty with restrained bittering hops and citrus. Its a decent pale ale, but a super cool one to tick as we currently soar over the East China Sea en route back to the US!
