Craft beer - what used to be referred to as 'micro-brewed' or 'boutique' beer - took its modern roots in the United States around thirty years ago as a new breed of keen brewers rediscovered lost styles and interesting, flavoursome brews. Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Japan and Scandinavia and pockets of Europe are today leading the charge, providing alternatives to the traditional Euro-style lagers.
Brewed in Sydney's very own Northern Beaches, the guys at 4 Pines brewing company are all about making high quality, locally crafted beer. The 4 Pines Pale Ale is one of their signature brews. It's ruby red colour makes it unique and it's packed with flavour with a bitter finish. Perfect for a special occasion or a Sunday BBQ with friends.
Ballistic Oaked XPA springs from a bold combination of Citra hops and American Oak. Hoppy and zesty with a core of grapefruit and a trace of vanilla sweetness. Ideally served ice cold alongside salty snacks.
