American Pale Ale • All Grain • 10 gal
This beer is a beautifully "balanced" American Pale Ale that has a malt character that is very complex because of the three different grains used.The Hop character is also very intriguing because five different hops were used. In a nutshell....this Beer flat out kicks butt!!
