7th Day Brewing Pacific Ale
Pale Ale 4.1 º
This Australian Sparkling Ale presents as a refreshing, contemporary interpretation of the classic style, characterized by a distinct haziness and a lively, effervescent nature. The sensory profile is led by a crisp malt backbone of lightly kilned grains and bready notes. Moderate earthy and herbal hop aromas, reminiscent of traditional Pride of Ringwood, harmonize with esters of fresh pear and green apple. On the palate, a firm bitterness balances the initial grainy sweetness, leading to a bone-dry, highly attenuated finish. Its sessionable 4.1% ABV ensures a clean, spritzy mouthfeel that remains effortlessly drinkable and thirst-quenching.
Appearance. Medium gold (5 SRM) with a tall, persistent, frothy white head. While the style allows for clarity if decanted, this specific example is purposefully hazy with noticeable effervescence.
Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a clean blend of bready malt and earthy, resinous hop character. Distinctive pome fruit esters, specifically pear and apple, are present alongside a subtle, fresh yeasty note.
Taste. Initial impressions of neutral, grainy malt are quickly superseded by a medium-high bitterness. Flavors of herbal, peppery hops and apple-like esters lead into a very dry, crisp finish with a lingering, clean bitterness.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with very high carbonation, providing a sharp carbonic bite and a prickly, refreshing sensation. No alcohol warmth is detected given the lower gravity.
