Taste & Aroma

Pouring a pale gold with a clean, crisp finish, Avalanche showcases a mix of Cascade, Challenger and Mount Hood hops for a citrusy, grassy bouquet and a lightly bitter, beautifully balanced finish that keeps you coming back for another sip.

Cheese Pairings

Avalanche’s bright, refreshing citrus and hop-driven profile makes it a brilliant partner for cheeses that are lively, tangy or rich with subtle savoury complexity.

Perfect matches:

  • Goat’s cheese (fresh young styles)
    The beer’s citrus lift and crisp finish cut through tangy creaminess, sharpening flavour and cleansing the palate.

  • Ricotta & fresh curds
    Light, milky textures meet fruity hop notes for a playful flavour contrast.

  • Havarti with dill or herb accents
    The herbal and citrus interplay brings out the best in both beer and cheese.

  • Mild Cheddar (young farmhouse)
    Smooth malt sweetness complements gentle savouriness without overpowering.

  • Citrus-washed rind cheeses
    Think soft, zesty cheeses where the hops echo aromatic citrus peel — a refreshing dance on the palate.

Why we love it
Avalanche hits that perfect balance of refreshment and flavour — bright, crisp and vibrant with just enough body to stand up to tangy or creamy cheeses. It’s the kind of pale ale that makes pairing feel effortless, turning every bite and sip into its own little flavour moment.
