Commercial Description:
Our flagship, this beer defines the classic, American-Style Pale Ale. We looked to the Pacific Northwest, rather than England, for our inspiration and our ingredients. Utilizing malt, hops, water, and most importantly yeast from the USA allowed us to create a balanced, highly drinkable beer. It’s no accident that the Carrabassett Pale Ale is our top-selling beer, year after year.

bottle acquired from beachbum25... bottle BB 9/20/07? i thought, cool i got a month to spare... d’oohh, 2007! pours a hazy copper color with a sandy off white head and some drippy lacing. surprisingly fresh smelling... caramel, cooked citrus, earth, grass and some chocolate-y cookie dough. the flavor is quite malty with some muted hoppiness. dry almost bitter finish with a hint of metal (which disappears quickly). medium body with a mouth feel seemingly fuller than most. this is pretty tasty even over a year old... i imagine it was really good fresh off the taps...
