This American-style pale ale recipe exclusively utilizes Zamba hops, the first proprietary release in the BSG Hop Solutions Program. This hop blend is named for the overwhelming tropical dance explosion its aroma evokes. You can expect complex aroma characterized by juicy tropical fruits (pineapple, mango), stone fruits, candy, and orange tangerine.
This homebrew recipe is based on Citra Summit American Pale Ale, which earned Ben Gaylord (Denver, CO) a bronze medal in the 2019 National Homebrew Competition.
