Commercial Description:
Demanding beer for demanding beer drinkers -- that's our Pale Ale. We craft this American pale ale with hearty amounts of pale and Munich malts, then balance it with lofty amounts of hops throughout. It's a finessed version of hop-head fun -- a black diamond beer without the bumps and dangerous curves.

This was a very good pale ale for me. I don’t really like the style that much, but I always want to try new beers. This one was good. A good hoppy flavor, but not overpoweringly so. I suppose it tasted like a little bit watered-down version of many other pales. I liked it better than fans of this style will, that’s for sure.

Very clear, light golden-amber. Tartness up front. Citric hop at first bite, then settles into a mild malt. Pretty good.

Happy, near clear traffic light amber, healthy eggshell froth. Excellent lacing. Bright citric/floral hop bouquet… accents of mandarin orange and doughy malt. Flavor is like drinking flowers, dosed with hoppy sharpness, toast, nectarines, German riesling, musk, oak. Some residual sweetness. Creamy palate, extemely smooth... but maybe a little flabby, needs more dryness and carbonation to wake it up. Gentle, resiny aftertaste; hoppy but not bitter. A fine APA.

Gold amber. foamy white head. Slightly sour nose., metallic, musty. The flavor is also a little sour and leads into a great bitterness that is excentuated by the sourness. It isn’t over the top but definitely isnt lacking in hops. Quite a nice pale ale.

Bottle - from sampler pack. Dark golden in color. Really good. Rich and quite hoppy. An excellent pale ale.
