Un échange fortuit sur les réseaux sociaux a donné naissance à une American Pale Ale. Titrant à 4,5%, cette bière repose sur une base de malt extra pâle qui met en valeur les houblons Citra, Chinook et Mosaic, offrant des notes d'herbe fraîchement coupée, d'écorce d'agrumes et de fruits à noyau.
The 4.5% ABV makes this dangerously easy to sip on a warm afternoon, and the extra pale malt base lets the Citra and Mosaic shine without any heavy bite. Canned it right after a hike—crisp, clean, and just the right amount of bitter to finish.
Poured a hazy gold and the aroma hit me before the glass even reached my lips — that Citra really shines. At 4.5% it's dangerously easy to sip through a couple while the Chinook and Mosaic keep things interesting without any bitterness overload.
That hop combo of Citra, Chinook, and Mosaic hits all the right notes without being overpowering at 4.5%. I opened one after mowing the lawn and it was exactly the crisp, refreshing finish I needed.
