Five Barrel Pacific Peak XPA

TASTING NOTES

XPA’s are a relatively new style to the craft beer scene. They are typically lighter than a Pale Ale, but with the same level of hop character. Five Barrel’s XPA uses new world, and old world hops to add a level of familiarity. There is a wonderful play between tropical fruit and a spicy pithy bitterness. The malt is light and semi-dry to add a layer of sweetness to balance.
