Commercial Description:
The Pale that packs a punch! Foolish amounts of pale malted barley and a ton of fresh Pacific Northwest hops put this crowd favorite somewhere between a strong ale and a double IPA. Don't let the golden color fool you; this nugget weighs in at 7.8% ABV!!

A yellow golden ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, a sweet malt with light nail polish notes, and a bit of boiled vegetables. In mouth, a crisp malt with strong honey, oily mouthfeel, german hops, cinnamon in finale. Medium bodied. Not much hops here. On tap at brewpub, 27 August 2009.

Draft. Light amber beer with an off-white head. Citrus aroma with some caramel. Nice citrus, caramel, pine flavor. Medium bodied. Lingering bitterness.

Sparkling straw gold. Creamy white head that falls too fast. Almost no aroma. Thick, sweet with some spiciness. Diacetyl?

Pours golden with medium lasting head. Aroma is a balance between malt and hops. Mouthfeel is quite light. Flavor is golden. Flavors were much milder than I was expecting. Not bad.

On tap @ Auburn Alehouse: Amber color with floaties. Sweet scent, floral hops. Nice flavor with a mild hop bitterness, alcohol noticable in the finish. Pretty good!
