Commercial Description:
Long ago, when Boulder Creek was little more than a lumber mill, a railroad was built to get lumber down to the Santa Cruz Wharf. This hearty Pale Ale is brewed for those hearty souls that still ride the rails. Specialty malts are added to the mash to give the beer it's wonderful hue while a blend of two hops are added in three seperate additions.

Wow. This is absolutely the worst pale ale I have ever tasted. Pours amber with no head. Aromas were a bit grassy which is not something I would expect in a pale. Flavor is a bit sour (not bitter but sour). This sourness is overwhelming and I can’t taste anything else. Mouthfeel is gritty. Awful aftertaste won’t go away. Need water to cleanse my mouth.
