American Pale Ale

Black Rock Crafted American Pale Ale is brewed to deliver a bold and flavorful Pale Ale experience with a rich, amber hue. NZ Green Bullet hops are added at the boil to provide a moderate bitterness, while Cascade hops are used for dry hopping to enhance the aroma.

For best results, brew Black Rock Crafted American Pale Ale with Black Rock Ultralight UME (or a second can of Black Rock Crafted American Pale Ale to boost bitterness) & an 11.5g sachet of Fermentis Yeast: SafAle™ US-05.

For a craftier option, try 50-200g of dry hop at day 6 of fermentation.

Suggested hop additions:

Classic American Pale Ale: Use Cascade and/or Centennial for a traditional citrus and floral aroma.

Citrus Pale Ale: Use Citra® and/or Amarillo® for a zesty citrus punch with hints of lemon and orange.

Tropical Pale Ale: Use Azacca®, El Dorado®, and/or Mosaic® for a burst of tropical fruit flavors like pineapple, mango, and coconut.

Piney Pale Ale: Use Simcoe® and/or Chinook for a bold pine and resin character.

Fruity Pale Ale: Use Galaxy and/or Ekuanot® for a mix of tropical and stone fruit flavors.
