Found Easy Light Pale Ale: Byford's New 2.7% ABV Summer Session Beer
New Found Easy Light Pale Ale Review: Perfect Summer Beer

As the festive season's indulgence fades into memory, a new brew from Western Australia offers the perfect refreshment for the new year's resolutions. Byford-based brewery Found has launched its second canned beer, a light pale ale aptly named Easy, designed for easy-drinking summer sessions.

A Post-Christmas Refreshment

The time for heavy Christmas hams and rich puddings is over. With many Australians swapping holiday feasts for gym memberships in January, the desire for a lighter, more sessionable beer becomes paramount. Found Brewing has answered this call with their latest release, which follows their first tinnie, 'Super', launched earlier in 2025.

Easy is crafted to deliver flavour without the fullness. At just 2.7 per cent alcohol by volume (ABV), it provides a legitimate pale ale experience that won't weigh you down. This makes it an ideal choice for long, hot summer days or for those who need to stay sharp, such as the designated driver.

Tasting Notes and Hop Profile

The brewers have built a compelling flavour profile using a trio of popular hops: galaxy, citra, and cascade. This combination is known for producing vibrant, tropical aromas and flavours commonly associated with quality pale ales.

On the pour, Easy presents a bright golden colour crowned by a thin, foamy white head. The aroma is subtly malty with a distinct hint of citrus, promising a refreshing taste. The palate is greeted with the expected tropical notes, but the beer's light body ensures it remains crisp and drinkable.

A very mild bitterness, measured at only 15 International Bitterness Units (IBU), provides just enough structure to prevent the beer from tasting too thin or watery, creating a well-rounded finish.

Perfect for Sharing This Summer

Found's Easy light pale ale is positioned as the antidote to the heavy, boozy beers of the festive period. Its low alcohol content and refreshing character make it a sociable choice, perfect for sharing with friends during a barbecue or a day at the beach.

The beer is available in four-packs priced at $19. For Perth beer lovers and those across Australia seeking a flavourful yet responsible drinking option this summer, Found's Easy offers a compelling and timely solution.
