Ballast Point - Yellow Tail Pale Ale- San Diego CA

Ballast Point - Yellow Tail Pale
4/5

Definitely a possibility of finding a permanent place in my fridge.

Yellow Tail Pale is based loosely on German style pales and is moderately hoppy with a clean bitter finish. It's a tasty consumption beer when you're looking for that tasty ale to accompany you to a summer BBQ and conveniently comes in 6 packs.

You will find Yellow Tail Pale and others in the Ballast point range in most chain supermarkets in San Diego.

Just like the big Tuna Fish on the label suggests, it will pair well with grilled fish or light seafood.

Ballast Point - Calico Amber Ale
5/5

This award winning ale is possibly one of the best beers I have discovered to date in the US.
This little beauty is a light golden amber in color and is mildly hoppy with smooth caramel notes. Inspired by English ESB's (Extra Special Bitter) it is the perfect balance of flavor and bitterness.

Enjoy it on its own or pair it with a steak, lamb or even grilled fish.
