The beginning of it all.

An eternal classic.

America's #1 Pale Ale.

Brewed since 1980, this is America's #1 legendary Pale Ale and the brewery's flagship product.

The birth of this beer (and the use of Cascade hops) sparked the craft beer revolution.

Starting as a homebrewer's dream, it transformed into a symbol of craft beer and greatly influenced countless brewers. Its unique pine, grapefruit, and citrus aromas and flavors from whole Cascade hops have captivated drinkers for over 30 years.

It has always been and will continue to be brewed with 100% natural ingredients, using the highest quality malt, whole hops, proprietary yeast, and natural water, bottle-conditioned to maintain its refreshing and robust flavor.

As the brewery's flagship product, it accounts for 60% of sales, boasting revenue of $112,000,000 (approximately 13.5 billion yen).

And its sales continue to grow every year.

Having won four gold medals at the Great American Beer Festival and countless other awards, it's no exaggeration to say that the history of this beer is synonymous with the history of Cascade hops and craft beer itself.

Cascade hops first appeared on the market in 1971 and, fortunately, rode the nascent wave of craft beer. With the massive success of this beer, Cascade hops have become a symbol of American hops.

With a character completely different from European hops, it rewrote American brewing history, and it is even said that "Cascade hops themselves created craft beer."

And indeed, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Cascade hops created the American Pale Ale style itself.

A beautiful amber color.

Clearly noticeable floral and citrus hop aromas with a warm malt flavor.

A perfectly balanced medium body with a light mouthfeel, where grassy and floral hop characteristics intertwine harmoniously with malt sweetness, resulting in an exhilarating taste.

With a dry finish and a hoppy and bitter aftertaste, this original American Pale Ale boasts an addictive flavor that makes you want to drink it again and again.

Incidentally, the recipe differs between packaged and draft versions: packaged products have an alcohol content of 5.6% and IBU of 38, while draft products have an alcohol content of 5.0% and IBU of 34.
