Pale Ale

Pale Ale - American

A testament to Cascade hops in a bottle, this medium-bodied pale ale has a refreshing citrus flavor and a distinctive floral hop aroma due to the aggressive addition of hops during fermentation. You'll notice a slight malty sweetness with a balanced hop finish. Perfect to enjoy anytime, anywhere.

Another founders classic I’m excited to have for the first time. Big floral and resinous old school hop nose. Smooth and medium bodied with an excellent and balanced hop bitterness that doesn’t dry you out too much. Perfect example of the style.

This is a nice pale ale, in the same vein as Sierra Nevada pale ale.

Howler. Been awhile since I hauled one of these home. Tasty. Not sure why this style isn't more popular. Let's all the parts shine through.

One of the first legal beers I ever had. I am sad that it is now a taproom exclusive but glad to be able to have it again.

More bitter than past versions. Doesn't seem quite as balanced as previous years, but it's still pretty good.

Clear honey golden color. Medium head. Slightly piney aroma. Semi-dry earthy taste. Dry earthy finish.
