Eight Degrees Tasting Note ...

Fresh Citrus and Grapefruit Aroma.

Colour/Appearance - Pale golden in the glass with a white head. Aroma - Bright grapefruit and pine on the nose. Flavour - Crisp pink grapefruit and pine needles. Medium body with some biscuit malt sweetness. Aftertaste - Smooth and crisp with a gentle smack of bitterness in the finish.

Food pairings - Pale Ales are traditionally seen a great foil for spicy food – there’s a little bit of sweetness there that will cut the chilli burn – but don’t miss the chance to have Howling Gale with fish and chips (or in the batter for the fish!). It’s well worth trying with a Cashel Blue and Broccoli Gratin, the bright citrus notes act like a squeeze of lemon with smoked salmon or pair it with semi-soft, washed rind cheeses like Milleens, Durrus and Gubbeen.
