About this deal

No holiday to St Ives would be complete without sampling at least one of the local St Ives cask ales! The Harbourside Light Ale has a citrus and floral hop aroma. The clue is in the name, but this one is best enjoyed on the waterside, watching boats sail in and out of the harbour. Ahoy, fellow beer aficionados! Today, we set sail on a voyage to the rugged shores of Cornwall, where the crisp sea breeze carries whispers of a truly exceptional brew: Sharp's Atlantic Pale Ale. This invigorating ale captures the very essence of the Cornish coastline, offering a refreshing respite from the daily grind. So, hoist the sails and let's dive into the bracing depths of Atlantic Pale Ale, shall we?

Try cutting through, complementing, and contrasting flavours too. For example, you could try a sharp citrussy beer with oily sardines, or a sweeter beer with salty halloumi. Their hand-brewed ales play tribute to the Celtic heritage of Cornwall and the names of their ales are based on the legend of King Arthur. According to legend, King Arthur was born at Tintagel Castle. On November 21st, 1980, Grossman attempted brewing his first pale ale. Ten batches later he had perfected Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Grossman used Cascade hops, which weren’t nearly as popular at the time as they are today, simply because he loved it so much. The Keltek Cornish Brewery was born in a stable on the Roseland Peninsula. It’s now one of the largest capacity Cornish breweries, and one of the largest in the west-country. Still a family-run business, they are now based in Redruth and use the finest whole hop flowers, British malts and hand-pitched yeast. Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. Founder Ken Grossman began dabbling in homebrewing as a teenager in 1969. But it was during a climbing trip to the Sierra Nevada Mountains in 1978 when the idea to build a brewery first came to mind. Grossman set out creating Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., handbuilding the brewhouse from scratch using primarily dairy equipment. Eventually, he turned his attention to brewing the perfect pale ale.This category featured IPAs from a selection of popular brands including Beavertown, Goose Island and Greene King. The growth in their popularity has even gone some way to stem a year-on-year fall in standard beer sales. Toeing the line between pale ale, extra pale ale, and American IPA, Xtra gets an oomph from Citra and Warrior hops without giving a boost to the alcohol content.

A nice, robust malt bill includes two-row, Munich, wheat, and Midnight Wheat for a strong spine that stands up to the extra dank Centennial and Cascade hops. Think of Drake’s 1500 like the everyday hoppy beer. A dry hop of Amarillo and Simcoe give this pale ale its signature bold grapefruit and orange character. While two-row and Crystal 35 malts give a bit of toast and honey. Which honestly is pretty strange if you think about it because Dogfish Head Co-Founder Sam Calagione brewed Shelter Pale Ale first. It’s no longer considered shameful to ask for an alcohol-free beer,” says Marc Oliver Huhnholz of the DBB. “On the contrary, it seems it’s even becoming something of an accepted lifestyle drink and the stigma is more or less gone.” Flying Dog’s beers can be found in twenty-three states and Washington, D.C.

We’d say that Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is the perfect version of this style with Cascade. And Pseudo Sue is the equally impeccable one for Citra. If Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Oskar Blues Dale’s Pale Ale are considered the first wave of American pale ales, Half Acre’s Daisy Cutter should be up there amongst the second wave. A quintessential reflection of the style, Mirror Pond has been an examplar pale ale for over twenty-five years and will continue to be well into the future. Citrus, mango, and grapefruit ferociously roar in this pale ale, finishing with a bright, clean bite.
