 | This style can range from a golden to light copper color. American Ales are characterized by the American variety hops used to produce high hop bitterness, flavor, and aroma. Complimentary foods include steak, lamb, and hamburgers.
Carefully brewed with caramel malted barley from America's Heartland for a beautiful, rich amber color and sweet malt character and fry-hopped with Cascade hops from the Pacific Northwest for a noticeably citrus aroma. |
Pale golden to deep amber in color and usually clear, although dry-hopped versions may be slightly hazy. APAs tend to have a moderate to high hop flavor, often showing a citrusy American hop character. Low to medium-high clean malt character (not sweet) which may be bready, toasty, biscuity. The balance is typically towards the late hops and bitterness, but the malt presence can be substantial. Moderate to high hop bitterness with a medium to dry finish. Carbonation is usually on the higher end. American pale ales are a derivative of English pale ales, however, they use local ingredients (such as American hops) which makes the difference in flavor. The ABV usually falls between 4.5-6% and the IBUs are typically around 30-45+. |
