Description While it may bear the name XPA, which as a category locally seems to be gravitating towards pale, light-bodied, hop forward pale ales around the 4.5 percent ABV mark, this is actually a "session XPA" weighing in at mid-strength weight. Thus, it's a little lighter again on the palate than many XPAs around, but in other respects delivers what you'd expect: a pale yellow, hazy pour with peachy, passionfruit hop characters, only the barest of malt sweetness and a faintly resinous bitterness rounding things off.
