Dale’s Pale Ale

Dale’s Pale Ale is a bold, pioneering American Pale Ale that helped kick off the canned craft beer revolution. At 6.5% ABV, 200 calories, and 18.0g of carbs per 12 oz (355 ml), it’s built for hop lovers who want a full-flavored, well-balanced pint.

Flavor & Aroma
Copper-amber in color with a dense, off-white head. Aromas burst with citrus zest, pine resin, and floral hops, layered over caramel and biscuit malt. Flavor follows suit—bright grapefruit and pine lead the way, supported by a rich malt backbone that smooths out the assertive 65.0 IBU bitterness. Finishes crisp yet lingering, inviting another sip.
