Belgian Pale Ale
History
Belgian Pale Ales were Belgium’s answer to the growing popularity of Pilsners spreading throughout Europe. Belgian Pale Ale’s were not traditionally hop forward and more malt and yeast driven. Rad Dog is twisted to be more “Americanized” by creating the beer to be more hop forward in the aroma and flavor, yet still respecting the yeast and malt character of the beer.
Tasting Notes
A bright golden beer with a tight white head with delicate aromas from the peppery, spicy yeast, a light, honey note, and a dominant aroma of tropical fruits such as mango, pineapple, lychee, and tangerines. The flavour is well balanced with a honey note from the malt, while the aromas continue throughout the body of the beer, leaving a dry finishing. A very inviting beer.
