Commercial Description:
Our namesake ale represents everything a good, well balanced pale ale should be: malty but not to sweet, refreshing but not too bitter, full-bodied but not too heavy, lively but not over carbonated. A clean, everyday beer that leaves your palate begging for more. 1.054 OG 32 IBU 5.5%ABV

(Bottle) Pours a clear golden body with a medium fluffy off-white head. Aroma of grapefruit and some pine notes. Flavor of hops and caramel malt; nice balance with light, crisp bitterness in the finish.

22 oz bottle acquired in trade with DarkElf (thanks!). Poured a medium golden color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas and tastes of pine, citrus, and light caramel. Light oranges in the tastes as well. Lightly bitter. Some lacing left on the glass.

on tap-pours a foamy to patchy off white head and yellow color. Aroma is hoppy-lemon, musty, faint medium malt-caramel. Taste is hops-lemon/earthy/metallic, musty, faint medium malt-caramel. Easy drinking.

Bottle... Hazy golden ale with a small, creamy, white head. Decent, small, swirling retention. Earthy, malty aroma. Medium-bodied and lightly creamy with lively carbonation. Grainy, citrusy flavor. Grapefruit pith, toffee and earthy tannins. Finishes crisp, moderately bitter, and then dry.

Draught Orange beer with small white head. Flowery nose, hops abundant. Dry, straightforward hoppiness. No explosion but just a good punch. Tangering peel. Slightly burning MF, very slight tartness. A good, if inadventurous APA.

Thanks to Dark Elf for hooking me up with this bottle. Gold with a white head. Smells of vitamins, yogurt and sugar. Taste is bitter with some nice peppery notes, but weak on the mouthfeel and finish.

Tap at brewery in Alpine, CA: Golden, nose of light fruity hops. The flavor is rich and sweet. A light balanced hop and malt tango. Decent.
