Berkshire Steel Rail Extra Pale Ale

Brewed by Berkshire Brewing Co.
Style: American Pale Ale
South Deerfield, Massachusetts USA

Brewed in the USA..... Courtesy of Nicole & Mike, thanks !! Pours a yellow color with a thin white head. Aroma of malts, grains, bread and orange peels. Once again the taste is much of the same. Mouthfeel is medium in body, kind of thin with some bitterness at the finish. Overall, kind of boring !!!

A golden ale with a thin white head. A rather strong aroma of boiled sweet vegetables, carrots, diacety notes. In mouth, a light honey malt, a bit of hops, very boring. On tap at Flat Street Brewpub, Brattleboro, August 2 2009.

Poured into a tasting glass from the tap. The appearence is a light olden color with a foamy white head. The smell is very close to bread, yeast and is a bit sweet, just a little bit fruity. The Taste is malty, with a slight hop feel. A hint of fruits like orange peel. The mouthfeel is very smooth. Does not over-power the taste buds and is very well rounded.

Pours a lacing, eggshell white head with a golden-amber body. Smells of grain, hops, slight belgian funk. Flavor is mellow floral and citrus hops, yeast, and grain.

A growler picked up for my sipping pleasure. A cloudy yellow color with much less carbination than I would have expected from an APA. Small floral and tiny bit orange zest aroma. Took a lot of chewing of this one to get some flavor out of her. Mostly some grass and flowers from the hops with a tiny bit of bitterness. Kind of watery but a clean finish. Agood buy the share with many friends of mixed taste.

Pours a golden color, with a thin white head. Mild and not too great grainy aroma. Mild taste of hops. Tastes almost like a lager if that makes any sense, because it is so grainy. Also it is kind of watery. Not that great at all. I would doubt that this is a proper APA... more like a blonde ale. BBC makes many better beers.

@CBC-22oz bottle–pours a white head and yellow/gold color. Aroma is grain/light malt, herbal hops. Taste is grain/light malt, some herbal hops, creamy.

Tap @ The Druid... Poured a light orange with a white head. Faint aroma of tangy hops. Sweet citrus notes with mild hops. A little yeasty, estery off flavor in the finish. Other spiced notes like cinnamon.
