Vivid impressions of wild forest fruit (blackberry, blackcurrant) and a warm, oak wood-like background note. High alpha acid content combined with a somewhat rustic European character (think Brewer’s Gold) make Pacific Gem a utility player in the brewhouse. Excellent for hop-forward lagers, farmhouse ales, and many English and American ale styles.
