Temple Pale Ale
Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008
Temple Pale Ale comes in a very nice looking bottle. Unashamedly inspired by Japanese artwork, it makes a stylish change from the usual ‘traditional’ theme that defines so many beer labels.
The beer is good too. I was recommended it by a guy at Swords in Vic Market after mentioning that my favourite drop was Little Creatures Pale Ale. Well, he knew his stuff, because this is a nice drop - similar to Little Creatures, but with a bit more body in the hops. There’s citrus flavours, but they’re not as flowery. Perhaps not as immediately accessible, but well worth getting acquainted with.
They say:
