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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Rerate 11-6-04: I don’t know if he altered the recipe or what, but this beer is much better than I remember. More hops and more complexity make this an excellent APA. 5-10-03: Sadly, just another APA. The body is nice and the head was good. The aroma was hoppy, but something was missing. They really needed to bump up the hops or bump up the hops, possibly both. The brewery is capable of brewing something good. The Alt was evidence of that. This just isn’t exciting.

Had this APA many times. Mild caramel malt and hoppy nose and flavor. Citrusy in flavor.

2005 GCBC. Slightly hazed amber color. Fruity aroma with light hop. Flavors of caramel malt and mild hop flavor. Small bitterness on the finish. Balanced and tasty but nothing too special.
