Smooth Sailing Session Ale: Full Flavour, Easy Pace
Smooth Sailing is a lower-alcohol pale ale designed for those times when you want to enjoy a few pints without going overboard. At 4.7%, it brings all the hop character and balance of a classic craft pale ale—just with a gentler buzz. It’s brewed on the same foundation as our Equinox Pale Ale, so if you’ve enjoyed that one, you’ll feel right at home here.
This session ale features a mix of Cascade and Northern Brewer hops in the boil for a citrusy, earthy backbone, then gets a dry hop of Centennial to brighten everything up with notes of grapefruit, pine, and fresh-cut herbs. The result is clean, hoppy, and refreshing, with just enough malt sweetness to keep things balanced.
Where it really shines is in its drinkability. Smooth Sailing is the beer you can enjoy over the course of a BBQ, a beach day, or a long catch-up with friends. It’s ideal for those who love bold hop flavour but want something lighter and more forgiving—whether you’re pacing yourself, staying sharp, or just not in the mood for high-test.
Think of it as the perfect companion for long conversations, sunny patios, and low-stakes Sundays. Smooth Sailing delivers all the flavour without tipping the scale, so you can enjoy your day without calling it quits early.
