The Perfect Pairing Pale Ale

Pale Ale - New England / Hazy

We worked with our pals at Cabot Creamery to design a beer to pair perfectly with sharp cheddar cheese. The malt bill incorporates spicy wheat malt and the dry hop leans into tropical varieties that also throw some citrus. To add a little body and sweetness we added some of Cabot’s whey permeate (raw lactose). The fruitiness of the hops complement the saltiness of the a cheddar and the bitterness cuts the fat, making it the idea companion for many dishes.

Why is it that we so look forward to family, then have all our blood pressures rise, and then say we should do this again? Guess it's like having a hangover and saying you will never drink again and then being the guy dancing on the bar that next night.

Not a fan of the underlying flavor. Probably too sweet

Clean and hoppy with mainly sweet citrus and tropical fruit flavours and a slightly odd almost cheesy aftertaste which probably needs you to being eating some cheese to take the edge off it!

Decent enough pale with no haze that I can see, good mouthfeel, low hoppiness & a light, delicate, gentle, subtle fruity flavor. Very slammable though. This one's a miss, DH. Thanx & a hat tip, JR, sure glad I didn't have to buy the 12 pack for this one!

Horrible allergy disclosure, I have a milk allergy and I didn’t expect a beer with straight up whey until I about three sips later when my lips began to swell up

Had this yesterday and should have looked at friends’ ratings before ordering. Total garbage. Tastes like it was brewed with plastic. It was so bad the bar didn’t charge me and it was thrown away. The trash is where it belongs.
