American Pale Ale 5.5 º 40 IBU

Cervecera Península

This American Pale Ale pays homage to the roots of the craft movement, delivering a balanced and nostalgic West Coast experience. The sensory profile is defined by the classic interplay of Cascade and Crystal hops, which provide a bright, zesty citrus punch alongside a distinctively resinous and slightly spicy undertone. A clean, supporting malt base ensures a smooth delivery, allowing the hop-driven pine and grapefruit notes to shine without overwhelming the palate. It finishes crisp and refreshing, embodying the straightforward, hop-forward character that defined the early days of the craft revolution while maintaining high drinkability and a refined, lingering bitterness.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber with brilliant clarity. Pours with a moderately large, off-white head that shows good persistence and leaves light lacing on the glass.

Aroma. Moderately high hop intensity featuring prominent grapefruit and lemon zest from the Cascade, complemented by the woody and resinous notes of Crystal. Underlying low grainy-sweet maltiness with a hint of toasted bread. Clean fermentation with very low fruity esters.

Taste. Initial citrus-forward hop flavor followed quickly by a firm, piney bitterness. The malt profile is supportive, offering light crackery and bready notes. Moderate bitterness provides balance against the malt. The finish is medium-dry and clean, with a lingering resinous and citrus aftertaste that remains smooth and never harsh.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, non-astringent texture. Moderate to high carbonation provides a refreshing prickle on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is negligible, contributing to high drinkability.
