Hazy Pale Ale – We’re pretty transparent when it comes to our brewing process and recipes, but we do keep a few things secret. Most breweries order malt, hops, and yeast from the same handful of suppliers. We think it is our attention to process detail that makes our beers unique. We built this hazy pale on a creamy base of barley and oats. Hopped with our two favorite Australian varieties Galaxy and Vic Secret along with American Citra. Galaxy and Citra is a near-perfect combination of tropical and citrus notes, but the Vic Secret provides balance with pine and herbaceousness.

T: Hop forward with assertive bitterness, not juicy, citrus, orange/grapefruit pith and peel, flour malt, bitter peel aftertaste.
