438 Pale Ale
Our buddies at John I Hass hops sent us a care package of some experimental hops, so we figured we would unleash them on the fans! This beer starts with a simple pale base of 2-row, flaked barley and flaked oats. Then, we fermented with a neutral ale yeast strain because this one is all about the hops. HBC-438 was used in the kettle and as dry hops, lending big notes of peach, pineapple and lime to this uber tropical pale ale.
