As we begin to enter into slightly longer days and spring training is in full swing, it’s time to start making some spring transition beers to celebrate this great time of year. My two favorite pales right now are Melvin Hubert MPA and Barley Brown’s Handtruck. Both light on the malt body and heavy on the hop flavor and aroma, these are ideal pales in my mind. Maybe because they’re more like IPA’s with slightly lower alcohol. Can’t lose with the Simcoe, Mosaic, Citra combo.
Cheers to spring!
