Pamplemousse Pale Ale - A beer for the trails!

$2 from every 6-pack goes to support Squamish bike trails!




Pamplemousse Pale Ale is back! Crafted in collaboration with Ride BC, the perfect post-ride beer, a tribute to mountain biking and the amazing trails Squamish has to offer.


When RideBC first approached us about creating a beer, the idea was to create something that mountain bikers in the Sea to Sky could attach themselves to, something balanced with complexity and approachability. Pamplemousse Pale Ale gives the unmistakable flavour of grapefruit, or AKA, pamplemousse. However, we didn't want to stop there. We sought to enhance this citrusy base with complementary fruit flavors. The result, a beer that pours a hazy golden orange, boasting a rich white head and an enticing aroma that tantalizes the senses with notes of grapefruit, pineapple, mandarin orange, lime, and mango.


But it doesn't end there. As you take your first sip, you'll discover a delightful blend of flavours on your palate, cantaloupe joins the fruit salad, accompanied by a subtle hint of green pepper skin. A gentle bitterness, reminiscent of fruit pith, lingers in the background, balanced by a bright carbonation that refreshes with every sip.

Clocking in at a sessionable 4.8% ABV and conveniently packaged in 355ml 6-pack cans, Pamplemousse Pale Ale is the perfect post-ride refreshment. Whether you're winding down after a thrilling descent, celebrating a summit conquered, or simply unwinding after a ride, this beer is sure to hit the spot.


With every six-pack sold, $2 goes directly to support Squamish bike trails. These donations are channeled through SORCA (Squamish Off-Road Cycling Association), helping to fund the construction and maintenance of mountain bike trails in Squamish, thanks to the collaborative efforts of RideBC.


Grab a 6-pack of Pamplemousse Pale Ale at the brewpub or online here so you can give back with every beer you enjoy while preserving and enhancing the trails we love! 🍻
