I’ve been brewing quite a lot, but haven’t posted in a long ass time. Back to it: Pale ale time! I love a good pale ale, one of the first beers that made me fall in love with pale ales was Golden Tuna from Half Acre (now called Tuna session ipa). I would pound 20 oz pints at the taproom and they were fresh, balanced, flavorful, and easy to drink.

Last year I was in Denver for GABF and I went to TRVE brewing and had a pale ale called Scorn. That beer took me back to how I felt drinking Tuna and I wanted to brew something similar – a clean, dry hopped pale ale. I found the recipe for Scorn here, It’s got a clean pilsner malt base, some vienna for sweetness, and some wheat for body and mouthfeel. Since I have lots of hops, I’m switching the combo of citra & mosaic for sabro & cashmere. Let’s gooo!
