American Pale Ale 4.2 º

Bluestone Brewing Co.

This American Pale Ale presents a bright sensory profile, driven by the expressive use of Azacca and Equinot hops. Despite its session-friendly strength, the beer delivers a punchy aromatic bouquet of ripe mango, papaya, and zesty citrus pith. A foundation of pale malts offers subtle notes of fresh bread and toasted grain, providing a clean canvas for the tropical hop character to shine. On the palate, the bitterness is firm but approachable, leading into a refreshing, dry finish. The overall impression is one of crisp, fruit-forward drinkability, perfectly balancing modern hop intensity with a lean, supportive malt structure.

Appearance. Brilliant pale gold with a thick, frothy white head that shows good persistence and leaves delicate lacing. High clarity.

Aroma. High hop intensity featuring prominent tropical fruit notes of mango and pineapple from the Azacca hops, complemented by the lime zest and herbal nuances of Equinot. Low grainy-sweet malt aroma supports a clean, neutral fermentation profile.

Taste. The initial impression is a burst of citrus and tropical fruit flavors, followed by a moderate hop bitterness. Pale malts provide a light bready, cracker-like flavor that balances the hop-forward profile without adding cloying sweetness. The finish is crisp and clean with a lingering note of orange peel and a dry aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate to high carbonation that enhances the crisp finish. Smooth texture with no detectable alcohol warmth or astringency.
