Your Strawberry Shortcake Shorty is a unique beer kit that is sure to tantalize the taste buds! This delightful pale ale is made with a blend of extra light dry malt extract, white wheat, Bonlander Munich 10°L, Caramel 10L malt, flaked oats, and Amarillo, Mosaic, Citra, and Simcoe hops. To give it an extra special twist, we've added lactose, strawberry and vanilla extract, and a Safale New England Ale yeast.
On the tongue, Strawberry Shortcake Shorty is a refreshingly light yet smooth beer. The initial flavor is a combination of biscuity malt, sweet vanilla, and juicy strawberry. As you savor the beer, the malt profile intensifies, giving way to a balanced hop bitterness. The beer finishes off with a subtle hint of sweetness from the lactose and extract. Enjoy a glass of Strawberry Shortcake Shorty for a unique beer drinking experience!
