What exactly IS an extra pale ale? Especially in this world of heavy-handed hop usage, that we admittedly contribute to? Well, at the heart of the style is a pale ale – a pleasant balance of hops in bitterness, flavor, & aroma. But then, it’s taken down a notch in the malt character and alcohol department. As for the hops – nuance and moderation are key – so we used Citra and Grüngeist, a low alpha, newish German hop variety that exhibits yellow peach, apricot, and alpine flowers. The end result is an easy peezy crusher that you can think as little, or as much, as you’d like whilst consuming. Basically, it’s EXTRA light not EXTRA more, and overall it’s just EXTRA special, and you can have an EXTRA one if you want to.
