A Note on This Beer
One of the best Pale Ales in existence with a perfect 100 style score on RateBeer, AleSmith Brewing Company’s .394 Pale Ale crushes a home run of peachy-pine hoppiness into every smooth drinking sip.
Serving up hit after hit of refreshment, this Pale Ale was brewed in honor of Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn -- collaborating with the Padres and the legend’s family, AleSmith celebrates this slugger’s desire for a flavorful brew that was “light with a kick.”
Hop character shines throughout, reaching the upper deck with line drives of peach nectar, conifers, and zests of white grapefruit aromas. Sipping delivers crisp lemon notes wrapped in sweet hints of pine tar resin. The body is surprisingly silky, with a walk-off bitter kiss that’ll make you circle the bases for another pint.
In 1994, Tony Gwynn earned an unfathomable .394 batting average. AleSmith honors Mr. Padre’s feat and his favorite brew with their world-class .394 Pale Ale - a brew perfectly rated, hopped, and matched for America’s pastime and one of its greatest players.
