Beer review: Sierra Nevada Pale Ale (5.6% United States: Sierra Nevada Brewing Company)


The Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is an ale, more specifically an American Pale Ale. It's brewed by the Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, the seventh-largest brewery in the United States. The Sierra Nevada Brewing Company was founded in 1980 and produces around 100 000 000 litres of beer annually. Thus, it's most definitely not the smallest of breweries but it's a craft brewery nevertheless. Furthermore, the Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is the best selling pale ale in the United States, so it has to have something extraordinary in it. Let's see what that is!

Taste: The Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is a medium-strength beer with a well-balanced slightly sweet taste. It's relatively easy to drink, yet it offers an interesting set of aromas: a sweet, even caramel, maltiness combined with a fruity hoppiness of citrus, orange and even pineapple.

Overall, the Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is an excellent beer. It's refreshing and it offers a perfect balance of sweet malt and hoppiness. It's definitely one of the best widely available APAs I've come across and deserves its fame. In my books the Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is the beer that sets the standard for other APAs.
