Bent Paddle Snow Maker Pale Ale

Bent Paddle Snowmaker Pale Ale. 5.5% ABV, 40 IBU.

Bent Paddle Brewing, Duluth, MN.

Lightly clouded, dark amber cclor, slim white head.

In the nose: moderate happiness appears in the aroma, citrus and pine, mixed with malt notes.

In the mouth: Crisp and bitter, with an ample frame of malty flavors below. Orange, grapefruit, lime, pine.match well with the slight sweetnesss from malt. Medium body, easy drinking. Just a touch of spice on the palate. Delicious, satisfying.

This is my idea of a winter pale ale. I could finish off a keg of this stuff.

Sometimes lake effect snow isn’t enough to blanket our thirst-enter Snowmaker. Our version of  a Robust Pale Ale piles on Centennial and Simcoe hops for a wonderfully groomed bitterness that carves through the malt backbone. Whether you are  celebrating apres skior simply kicking back, Snowmaker is the perfect accompaniment to your seasonal adventure.
