Sierra Nevada Pale Ale

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is the beer that started the craft revolution, brewed by Ken Grossman in 1980 with Cascade hops in Chico, California. This $9 six-pack remains the benchmark for American pale ales, being 50% more affordable than typical craft rivals while maintaining exceptional balance. Before Sierra Nevada, American beer meant Budweiser; after it, an entire industry emerged from this 5.6% ABV classic, still in production and still among the best pale ales you can buy.
