Simian Ales

Simian Ales First Gold Lager offers a crisp and refreshing experience, elevating the classic American Lager profile with distinct English ingredients. Brewed with 100% Simpsons extra pale ale malt, the base provides a clean, subtly grainy sweetness that remains light on the palate. The use of First Gold hops introduces a delicate floral and spicy hop character, carrying a hint of orange marmalade typical of the variety. Its brilliant clarity and high carbonation deliver a snap of refreshment, finishing dry and neutral. This lager balances a restrained malt presence with a low, refined bitterness, making it an impeccably clean and approachable sessionable pint.

Appearance. Very pale straw to light yellow (approximately 2-3 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a moderate, white frothy head that displays fair retention and light lacing.

Aroma. Low intensity malt aroma, perceived as clean and grainy-sweet from the Simpsons extra pale ale malt. Hop character is subtle but present, offering light floral and spicy notes from the First Gold hops. Fermentation profile is clean with no significant esters.

Taste. Initial impression is crisp and neutral. Features a moderately-low grainy malt flavor followed by a low hop flavor with floral and herbal qualities. Bitterness is low to medium-low, providing a balance that leans slightly toward a clean, dry finish. The aftertaste is short and refreshing.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high carbonation that produces a prickly carbonic bite on the tongue. Smooth texture with no alcohol warmth and zero astringency.
