Moon (2014 Brew Ridge Trail Collab)
Blue Mountain
Pale Lager – 4.5% ABV
Moon: A very light and subtle Session India Pale Lager, brewed from the same mash as its sister beer, Earth. Middle-late and last runnings of a pale, wheat and light crystal malt grist combine with a light hand of Citra, Falconer’s Flight, Cascade, Amarillo and Jarrylo hops. The final accent is from the unique Jarrylo dry-hoping, though we’ve left a few lively flakes of Amarillo whole hops in the final filtered version to complement the Jarrylo hops and light malt backbone. Unlike a normal India Pale Lager (IPL), this Session version lacks the overt hop bitterness and focuses in on a soft malt flavor and dominant hop flavor and aroma. If you drink Moon with its bigger sister beer, Earth, please try this very subtle beer first! 4.6% abv, 32 IBUs, 2.7° SRM.
