Intro to Polly’s Series – Pales Bundle

EXTRA PALE ALE | 4.2% | AZACCA, CITRA, SIMCOE - Sometimes you just want a beer that is mega sessionable. Our Core pale ale is delicious, hazy juicebomb of a beer, balanced with enough bitterness to keep drinkers coming back for more. A baby version of our incredibly popular Spur IPA - Floret is positively bursting at the seams with peach, mango, and pineapple notes, backed up with pithy orange peel from its Citra, Simcoe and Azacca hop bill.

PALE ALE (GLUTEN FREE) | 5.0% | CHINOOK, IDAHO 7, MOSAIC - We never like to have to exclude anyone from enjoying the experience of a Polly’s beer. We had it in mind that bringing a gluten-free beer to our output was the sensible thing to do for what felt like an eternity, and thanks to advancements in our brewing technology we’re delighted to bring Pine to the Polly’s party. Wrapped up in the style that we know and trust best, this pale ale encapsulates everything we’ve grown our reputation to over the last six years, but safe for those with an intolerance to the products in our regular output. Not cutting any corners here, we’ve brought Mosaic Spectrum, Idaho 7 and Chinook to the dance on this beer to create a pale ale positively bursting with tropical, pineapple and clean pine notes.

PALE ALE | 5.8% | CITRA, SABRO - Our last collaboration before the 2020 lockdown with our super pals over at Big Mountain Brewing, and a surefire cult favourite takes its rightful place as the pale ale showing for our new Icons range. We've revisited this beer several times over its lifespan, and originally our first foray into using everybody's new favourite hype hop Sabro in one of our beers, we're now world-weathered in the little quirks and idiosyncrasies of this incredible varietal. Amplified up to the max, Sabro brings a metric tonne of sweet, creamy, pineapple and coconut notes before being reeled in by an in-house Polly's favourite in Citra to keep everything balanced. Named for a truly terrible George Takei impression, this beer will literally make you say "...Oh my!".

PALE ALE | 4.1% | NELSON SAUVIN BLISS - There’s a common misconception when it comes to the more sessionable pale ales; that because of the lower ABV we have to sacrifice flavour intensity, or that we use lesser hops in the more sessionable end of the brewing spectrum. This couldn’t be further from the truth and Infinite Source is a gleaming example of this in action. Fresh cropped Nelson Sauvin would be enough to qualify for this on its own, but we’re never ones to do things by half here at Polly’s. Featuring the Bliss blend exclusive to Freestyle Hops, this incredibly high-alpha variety features a blend of late and early harvested Nelson Sauvin to maximise tropical intensity, and bring all those gooseberry, lychee and grapefruit notes fully to the party. The result is a robust, dank and complex hop-forward beer that punches way above its ABV.

PALE ALE | 4.0% | NZ-106, NELSON SAUVIN BLISS - Our goal to regain our hype credentials doesn’t just stop at the big and decadent beers. We’re actively pushing this vibe throughout the entire brewery across the ABV spectrum to make even our sessionable beers a lot more desirable, flavour driven and sought-after rather than rinsing the same Citra and Mosaic combinations over and over. With Quiet Hour, we’ve gone all in on the freshest and most advanced technology our supplier Freestyle Hops can get us. Specialising in hops sourced from New Zealand, we’ve utilised NZH-106 - an experimental hop fresh from the hop breeding company native to the South Pacific. Backing this hop up is a brand new blend of Nelson Sauvin - the aptly named Bliss blend. Taking early-harvested Nelson and blending it with purposely stressed, ultra late-harvested crops, the result is a hop that is outrageously tropical, with complex sweet citrus, and a light dankness that only Nelson brings to the party.
