One of the pioneering American breweries to start the craft beer movement in America in the 1980-90s and currently one of the largest independent breweries producing craft beer today. Many consider Sierra Nevada Pale Ale to be the benchmark for American style Pale Ales and has been the largest selling pale ale in America since 2012. As you can imagine this is one hell of a drinkable pale ale.
A wonderfully well balanced pale ale which is full of great tropical fruit flavours all complimented by a nice malt backbone. Hoppy and direct Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is a punchy, aggressive and well balanced with notes of tropical fruits, pine and grape fruit with a satisfying bitter aftertaste. Without doubt a classic in the style and is very rarely bettered by its competitors.
