The Coastal Brewing Co Treachery XPA

Style
XPA
ABV
4.5%

The humble XPA is the kind of beer style that gives brewers plenty of scope to explore their creativity when it comes to recipe development. Is the X referring extra hops? Extra alcohol? Or does it say we can expect the beer to be extra pale.

For The Coastal Brewing Co, Treachery XPA is mostly about lots of hops, using a blend of varieties from New Zealand, while rolled oats in the malt grist ensure it’s smooth and soft in texture too. On the hop front, those Kiwi varieties provide lime, pear and gooseberry, amid quite rounded flavours akin to white wine. With an ABV of 4.5 percent, the beer site quite close to hazy pale territory, although you wouldn’t know that on the first pouring, thanks to its glistening, golden straw appearance.
