Borderline Pale Ale

Pale Ale

Borderline Pale Ale

Aromatic · Expressive · Refreshing

Style : Pale Ale. Modern, balanced, resolutely hoppy. The aromatic expression is carried by the duo Cascade (partly from our own hop garden in Mussy-la-Ville, complemented with German Cascade) and Citra (US), supported by a biscuit malt base that structures the whole.

Sensory profile

  • Bitterness: 3/5 — assertive but controlled (IBU 35).
  • Body: 3/5 — medium, without heaviness.
  • Aromatic intensity: 4/5 — bold, without saturating.
  • Aromas: citrus · floral · light tropical fruits.
  • Finish: clean and balanced, slightly lingering.

How to serve

To fully enjoy its potential, give it a prime spot at the front of the fridge (4–6 °C). Sip slowly, ideally in a tulip or Teku glass, to let the aromas come through.

Production

  • Brewed and canned at our facilities, in Mussy-la-Ville (Belgium).
  • Unfiltered · unpasteurized.
  • Malt 100 % from organic farming.
  • Natural in-tank carbonation — industrial CO₂ kept to the strict minimum (just to fine tune), no second fermentation.

To be savored slowly. Take the time to drink better.

Story behind the recipe

Our first Pale Ale. Cascade for the floral and citrus notes — partly from our own hop garden in Mussy-la-Ville, complemented with German Cascade — and American Citra for the tropical punch, on a biscuit malt base that gives structure. A "moments" beer — aperitif, everyday meal, summer evening — resolutely hoppy yet not overly bitter.

Brewed with 100 % organic barley malt, unfiltered, unpasteurized, naturally carbonated in the tank.
