Blackstone American Pale Ale

Very nice american pale ale. Follows in the footsteps of the archetype set by Sierra Nevada’s pale ale...

Draft at Restaurant. Amber color in the glass with a frothy off-white head that lasted and left thick lacing. The aroma was floral and citrus. The flavor was of citrus, pine, and hints of malts. Light body that was clean and crisp. Had a balanced bitterness that does not last. Very enjoyable.

Source:Cask at the brewpub.
Glass:10 ozer.
Appearance:Hazy gold pour with a thin ring of soapy bubbles.
Aroma:Fruit, caramel and citrus.
Flavor:Caramel body with a strong citrus presence. Much better on cask than tap.
Palate:Medium body with cask carb.
Overall:Excellent cask beer, average tap beer.

Dark caramel orange with an off white head. Aroma is caramel, pine hops. Taste is caramel, spicy hops. Simple and decent.

Growler. Pours an off-white head with legs and a golden amber body. Smells of fruit hops with hints of honey and spice hops. Tastes like spicy hops, bitter hops, and some honey. Finish is fruity hops and bitter.
