Alaskan Pale

Brewed by Alaskan Brewing Co
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Juneau, Alaska USA

Nice gold color and thin white head. Aroma was faint, minimal malt profile crisp dry finish. Nothing super special but a nice clean beer.

Clear gold, little head. Honey and hop aroma. Sweet honeyed malt flavor with a splash of hops. Fairly forgettable.

One of the few classic beers which has not diminished in palate or aroma. Pours light gold, with a distinct flavor of malt and vanilla. Very smooth aftertaste good with anything

A very plesant beer. This wasn’t mind blowing but everything was slightly better than I expected culminating in a very good beer, one of the better sessions. A doughy aroma, and a citrus flavor dominate the senses. But there was more to be had in this beer, a slightly bitter/sour finish was an unexpected touch as was the gentle caramel flavor in a blonde.

As always, excellent quality of product from Alaskan Brewing. Light bready and sweet maltiness that lingers in the mouth and the nose. Flavorful yet easy to drink as a session beer. I’d say the malt/hop balance is perfect, I want the recipe! ;)

Bottle. Poured pale amber, almost like a pilsener, with a white head. Not much aroma, but what there is is a nice maltiness. Light malty body with a naartjie note. Dry hop finish. This is low enough in alcohol to be a session beer, or to have at lunch before going back to work.

Bready maltiness with some grassy hop notes. There is a bit of a honey like sweetness, but overall just a really basic beer, that is almost like not drinking a beer at all. Not filling in the slightest.

Pours a transparent deep golden bronze with a spotty, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly toasted pale malts with a touch of grapefruity hops. Body starts with good malty sweetness well-balanced with a fresh piny hoppiness toward a slightly drier, crisp bittersweet finish. A pretty good APA.
