Counter‑Attack: American Pale Ale – 20 L

Brew Counter‑Attack: our American Pale Ale recipe

Counter‑Attack is our turbo‑charged take on the iconic cornerstone of the American craft revolution. Tailored for the intense pace of the World Cup, we wanted to preserve the soul and character of this timeless classic while injecting it with a true racing engine to take on the summer heat.

The grain bill combines Pale Ale malt with a subtle touch of Amber Caramel Malt (Soufflet). No heaviness here: it simply adds depth to the golden color and supports the tasting experience with discreet, elegant toasted notes.

The result: a beautifully golden, crystal‑clear Pale Ale with exceptional thirst‑quenching power. The legendary Cascade hop leads the game brilliantly, refreshing the palate with its intensely citrusy and floral aromas, carried by a moderate bitterness that delivers a superbly crisp balance. Joining the party, Voss Kveik yeast fuses its own citrus esters with the hop profile, amplifying the zest character. A Pale Ale with attitude, impressively effective.

Rolling Beers Tips

• Want to drink your beer super fast? Ferment in a classic bucket, and after just one week transfer it into an Oxebar mini‑keg (4, 8 or 20 L). You can carbonate and serve draft beer in just a few days using a simple SodaStream CO₂ bottle! See the guide in our dedicated article.
