No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem Extra Pale Ale Beer Kit - All Grain

Description

Your No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem Extra Pale Ale gives you a light, crisp ale built on a clean malt foundation that stays refreshing through the finish. Brewers 2-Row and Vienna malts create a subtle bready backbone while Caramel Malt 10L and Honey Malt add gentle sweetness and warm toasty notes. Amarillo hops lay down firm bitterness at the start of the boil, Cascade brings floral and citrus character in the middle, and Citra finishes with bright grapefruit and lime. SafAle US-05 keeps fermentation neutral so the malt and citrus hops stay forward in your straw-colored, dry beer.

Your No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem Extra Pale Ale kit never sits on a shelf. Your grains are crushed to order, your ingredients are packed fresh, and you don't pay for a flashy box. It's all about giving you the freshest ingredients to make your best beer.
