Notes

Trivector Pale is a hop-forward pale ale brewed in perfect three-part harmony. Built on a base of 2-row, Victory, and Caramel 20L, it balances crispness with a touch of malt depth. Centennial provides clean bitterness, while Cascade and Citra are layered in a three-stage dry hop — at pitch, peak fermentation, and cold crash — for bold grapefruit and tropical aroma.

Fermented with US-05 from 65°F to 70°F, then cold-crashed to 35°F, it finishes dry and bright thanks to a mash pH dialed to 5.2. With a BU/GU of 0.96 and a 5.5% ABV, Trivector is clean, expressive, and brewed by three minds, one mission.
