Howling Hops Switch Back
American Pale Ale 4.5 º
This vibrant American Pale Ale delivers a refreshing, hop-forward experience at a sessionable strength. Citra and Azacca hops lead the charge, bursting with tropical notes of mango and pineapple, while Mandarina Bavaria contributes a bright, zesty citrus edge reminiscent of tangerine. A clean, super-light malt backbone provides just enough support without distracting from the juicy, resinous hop character. The fermentation profile is neutral, allowing the complex interplay of stone fruit and pine to shine. Designed for easy drinking, it balances moderate bitterness with a crisp, dry finish, offering a modern, aromatic profile that remains incredibly approachable and bright.
Appearance. Pale golden (5 SRM) with a moderately large, white, frothy head showing good retention and light lacing. Generally clear with a slight, modern haze.
Aroma. Moderately-high hop aroma featuring prominent tropical fruit (mango, pineapple), zesty citrus (tangerine), and a light resinous undertone. Low, neutral grainy-sweet maltiness supports the hops. Fermentation profile is clean with very low fruity esters.
Taste. Bright hop-forward flavors of citrus zest and tropical fruit mirror the aroma. Low crackery malt character provides a lean foundation. Moderate bitterness is well-integrated, leading to a medium-dry, clean finish. The aftertaste features lingering notes of resin and citrus without being harsh.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate-high carbonation. Overall smooth and crisp texture with no astringency and a subtle, refreshing finish. No alcohol warmth is perceived.
