Brouwerij Heer & Meester in Susteren crafts the Bittere Pale as a contemporary take on the classic India Pale Ale. This fruity beer at 5.5% ABV draws inspiration from the English brewing traditions of old, when strong, hop-forward ales were brewed to survive long voyages to trading colonies.

The Bittere Pale delivers pronounced hop bitterness at its core, complemented by fruity character throughout. At 72 IBUs, this beer commits fully to the hop-bitter profile, tempered by sweet and tart notes that provide counterbalance.
