Gage Roads Atomic Pale Ale, 330 ml Can, ABV 4.7%
Gage Roads’ take on the American Pale Ale style pours the brightest of bright oranges and uses a combination of US hops (Citra, Ahtanum and Centennial) to deliver what you’d expect of such a beer in a polished, approachable manner. There are some delicate citrus and pine aromas and fruity, grassy hop flavours that sit alongside the caramel grain flavours, with a restrained and drying bitterness tying things together. As of mid-2019, the beer is striking out on its own, in a manner, as Gage Roads launches the Atomic Beer Project under its Good Drinks umbrella. It’s a home for hop forward beer styles that will have its own brewery home in Redfern.

Little Bang Beard Fiction American Pale Ale, 375ml Can, ABV 5.0%
A droplet of condensation teased the rim of his glass, the caramel highlights sparkled in the sun, the hop aroma rising, rising… His parched lips parted, and… Beard Fiction. This is an American Pale Ale of borderline-pornographic drinkability. Here at Little Bang, they like their Pales like they like their men: A bit nutty, not too bitter, and pretty damn fruity.

Capital Trail Pale Ale, 375ml Can, ABV 4.7%

Staves Brewery Pale Ale, 375ml Can, ABV 5.3%

Mornington Peninsula Pale Ale, 375ml Can, ABV 4.7%
Mornington Pale is an American-style Pale Ale, pouring a cloudy golden yellow with a tightly packed white head. On the nose you get both citrus and passionfruit aromas, showcasing American hops added late in the brewing process. A light smooth palate, aided by the generous addition of wheat malts, moderate bitterness and carbonation make for a flavoursome and sessional ale.

Akasha Freshwater Pale Ale, 375ml Can, ABV 5%

Green Beacon 7 Bells Passion Fruit Sour

In naval terms, the ringing of “7 Bells” indicates half an hour until the end of a shift. As knock-off approached at Green Beacon, brewers would find themselves wanting an easy drinking, thirst-quenching beer. More often than not, it was a Passionfruit Sour they reached for, and so was born this refreshingly tart, Gose style Ale. A core range staple. Make it a Beacon!
