Create your own refreshing American Pale Ale with the Easy Goin American Pale Ale - Extract Kit. Your beer kit offers a balanced and approachable flavor profile that will appeal to both beginner and seasoned homebrewers alike. The combination of quality ingredients ensures a satisfying brew without being overly complicated.

This American Pale Ale features a smooth, balanced malt character with subtle sweetness derived from the 6 lbs of Briess Golden Light Dry Malt Extract (DME). The DME provides the perfect foundation, delivering a clean malt profile that's both crisp and refreshing. The 1 lb of Caramel/Crystal Malt 20L adds a touch of light caramel and a mild sweetness, giving the beer depth without overpowering the overall flavor. The maltiness pairs seamlessly with the hops, creating a beer that’s flavorful yet not overwhelming.

The Cascade hops are the star of this beer's hop profile. The 1.0 oz of Cascade Hops (Bittering) included for the boil provides just enough bitterness to balance out the sweetness of the malt, offering a clean, slightly resinous finish. The 1.0 oz of Cascade Hops (Aroma) added later in the brewing process brings out delightful citrus and floral notes, adding complexity to the flavor profile without dominating the brew.

The Fermentis US-05 American Ale Yeast brings out the best of the malt and hops, delivering a clean fermentation with subtle fruity esters. This yeast works to create a crisp, smooth finish that's perfect for an easy-drinking, everyday pale ale.

Your Easy Goin American Pale Ale - Extract Kit is designed to simplify your brewing experience without compromising on quality. The ingredients are carefully selected to ensure you can enjoy a well-balanced pale ale with just the right mix of malt sweetness and hop bitterness. Whether you're new to brewing or experienced, this kit is perfect for creating a beer that delivers both satisfaction and consistency.
