American Pale Ale (575)

Pale golden to deep amber in colour and usually clear, although dry-hopped versions may be slightly hazy. APAs tend to have a moderate to high hop flavour, often showing a citrusy American hop character. Low to medium-high clean malt character (not sweet) which may be bready, toasty, biscuity. The balance is typically towards the late hops and bitterness, but the malt presence can be substantial. Moderate to high hop bitterness with a medium to dry finish. Carbonation is usually on the higher end. American pale ales are a derivative of English pale ales, however, they use local ingredients (such as American hops) which makes the difference in flavour. The ABV usually falls between 4.5-6% and the IBUs are typically around 30-45+.

A light, yet flavorful pale ale with a dry finish. This classic American Pale ale was our first beer introduced to Bend. Light in color, medium body with a clean dry finish. This beer has quickly become a local favorite. Hops are Summit, Sterling, and Cascade.
