I’ve been hoping to run across Starr Hill Brewery’s Grateful Pale Ale on tap and finally did yesterday.
It wasn’t a bad beer but I didn’t order a second.
On the brewery site they give the ingredient list and the hops are Chinook, centennial, topaz and cascade. I use cascade and centennial a lot in single hop IPAs and I think I know Chinook from my Arrogant Bastard clone.
Definitely picked up on the centennial and cascade nose and palate.
After a google or 2 I figure the topaz contributes the dankness and slight ‘cat urine’ aroma? I’ll put that one on the list to avoid using.
