Commercial Description:
American Pale Ale is pale copper in color with a medium-light body. Brewed with five different hop varieties, its aroma is very floral and inviting. The mildly malty flavor is nicely rounded by its complex hoppy finish.

Draft. Orange amber with a small white head. Hoppy nose, grapefruity. Flavor is soft but sharp hops over malt. Very citrusy. Not bad at all.

Copper pour with light tan head and lace. Light citrus and semi-sweet malt aroma. Nice medium malt, good finishing bitter, and a dry finish. Medium bodied with very nice carbonation. Very solid drinkable beer. Clean and crisp.

Decent NW APA, i.e. the hops are highlighted. Poured an orangey copper with light citrus ad pine hops. Well balanced with decent malt and good carbonation. A very sessionable beer and nice to enjoy at the bar. Well done.

On tap. Pours clear copper with light head. Aroma of citrus and resinous hops, caramel malt, and light spice. Taste is citrus hop, toasted malt, and finish is bitter. Mouth is medium and carbonation is average. Very easy-drinking, enjoyable brew.

on tap-pours a blotchy off white head and copper color. Aroma is mild medium citrus, medium malt. Taste is medium citrus-some bitterness, (comes across as mostly northwest but some English-flat/metallic), medium malt-caramel. Solid. OK carbonation.
