kramer (1956), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 30, 2007 22 oz bottle. Pours a clear dark gold with a one finger plus white head that left some heavy lacing. Minimal carbonation. Nose is leafy citrusy hops with just a little bready malt. Flavor is just lightly hoppy, the bready malt dominates up front with a little bitterness emerging on the finish. Mouthfeel is lighter bodied with moderate fairly soft carbonation. A little doughy stickiness on the finish. Overall, not the most aggressive Pale Ale, but this was certainly drinkable. Better than most of their other offerings. SuzyGreenberg (1067), Seattle, Washington, USA Jul 8, 2007 22 oz. bottle - pours clear and light amber; malty aromas and and mild hop flavors; drinks clean, but a pretty basic pale ale apoptosis (1316), Long Island, New York, USA Jun 27, 2007 I guess people don’t like this beer...Well, I was pleasantly surprised, although I have to say that the only reason I drank this bomber last night was because the cap came off in the car and it leaked beer! It has some of the most foam I’ve ever had in a beer, especially from a Pale Ale. It was quite tasty overall - amnd quite drinkable once the head subsided. It had a full body of hops, which made it bright, crisp and refreshingly bitter, yet it was heavy and filling, which was excellent, since I was a.) hungry and b.) needed to get to sleep fast. So it worked. bigrond (886), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 10, 2007 OUCH!!. is all I can say. This beer smelled sour - then tasted sour. It was one of the worst beers I’ve ever had. I still chocked down the entire 22 oz. - I’m a trooper, beer is a terrible thing to waste SwillNoMore (105), USA Jan 7, 2007 22oz bottle, from mug. Crystal clear, light copper body with a beautiful white head. Aroma is pretty bland; mostly cereal, with a faint resinous note. Medium bodied, with a lightly oily texture and lively but not overbearing carbonation. Flavors really are well-balanced as they claim. Finish is bitter, but sort of tangy.
