Original Pale Ale
Coopers Brewery Limited
Australia

ABV:
4.5%

Notes: Our 'Pale' is naturally conditioned in the bottle or keg. This traditional Coopers brewing method produces the trademark sediment that gives our ales a distinctive, fine cloudy appearance.

This beer is a deep golden colour and pours with a generous level of foam. To unlock its full flavour potential, make sure to roll before pouring. No additives. No preservatives.



Walking Backwards Australian-style Pale Ale
Outer Light Brewing Company

Connecticut, United States

ABV:
5.5%


Notes: In 2016, the Australian-style pale ale became a recognized beer style in the Great American Beer Fest. According to the guidelines, this style mimics an intensely fruity American IPA. So why call it a pale ale? No one really knows.

Our version of the Australian pale ale is a more traditional pale ale using Australian hops. In fact, we highlighted one of our favorite Australian hops - Summer. Summer hops are derived from the famed lager hop called Saaz. Summer hops produce strong pear and melon flavors, with a hint of tropical fruit lingering in the background. Our light-bodied pale ale drinks perfectly in the Australian summer.
