The Original Craft Beer In A Can... So You Can. Dale’s Pale Ale is our defiant, proud, voluminously hopped mutha of a pale ale. If you’re looking for a fistful of flavor, look no further than this hopped-up trail ride. It delivers a hoppy nose and assertive-but-balanced flavors of pale malts and citrusy floral hops from the first sip to the final swig (6.5 % ABV and 65 IBUs). Dale’s Pale Ale is the beer that started it all. Oskar Blues launched our canning ops in 2002, brewing and hand-canning Dale’s Pale Ale in our funky Lyons, coloRADo, brewpub. America’s first craft-canned mountain pale ale is a hearty, critically acclaimed trailblazer that changed the way beer fiends perceive craft beer. Dale’s is The Original Craft Beer in a Can. Hands down. Bottoms up.
