This release is built on a simple philosophy: flavour first. We’ve taken our core pale ale framework and pushed it to the limit, chasing maximum hop oil saturation without harshness or astringency. The result is an XPA with an intense, hard-to-define hop expression - the kind of aroma where individual fruit notes blur into something bigger. Up front you’ll find complex citrus, followed by layered notes of pine resin and subtle woody undertones. Refined and delicate in structure, yet saturated from start to finish. Sequence XPA is unapologetically flavour-first. The level of hop saturation we’ve pushed comes with trade-offs in the glass - a choice we made deliberately in pursuit of maximum aroma, flavour, and drinkability. It has everything you want from a West Coast IPA, and everything you want from a pale ale. We took the brief from both ends of the spectrum to deliver our perspective of what an XPA should be. The base is doing the heavy lifting here - built to carry hop oils, manage hydrophobicity and head retention, but also keep the beer highly drinkable despite the intensity. We’re still exploring how far this approach can go. Watch this space... Sequence XPA (5.0%) Intense aroma. Intense flavour. Maximum drinkability.
