🍺 Pale Ale

Pale Ale is an Artisan Good in Stardew Valley, produced by placing Hops into a Keg. It is one of the most profitable drinks to mass-produce, since Hops regrow daily in Summer, providing a steady supply for brewing.

Pale Ale takes 1–2 days to process inside a Keg. Its base price is 300g, which can be increased with quality aging in a Cask.

📦 Uses

• Sold for profit (very profitable when produced in bulk).
• Gift: Loved by Pam.
• Required for the Artisan Bundle in the Pantry (Community Center).
• Quest item for “Pam Is Thirsty” (bring Pale Ale to Pam).
