Brick Road Cascade APA 1.8kg

This pale amber American Pale Ale offers a rich, malty flavour derived from amber and ale malts, complemented by a citrus and grapefruit finish from the Cascade hops. The Craft Beer Kit is fully equipped with American Ale Yeast and Cascade dry hop pellets, providing everything needed for an authentic brewing experience.

For an APA, it's recommended to add 1.5kg of Brick Road Light malt extract. To infuse additional piney, earthy hop aromas, consider dry hopping with up to 200g of other American 'C' hops like Cascade, Centennial, or Columbus. For those preferring tropical or stone fruit notes, Galaxy, Nelson Sauvin, or Motueka hops are excellent choices.
