A Medium Bodied Amber Colored Pale Ale. This beer is well balanced between the sweetness imparted by the roasted caramel malt and light bitterness imparted by the traditional English variety of hops. Typical of English Style Ales, it has light carbonation with a pleasant hoppy aroma.

12oz bottle courtesy of ericandersnavy. First beer from Arkansas. Good caramel malt and a whif of the hops. Deep amber body with foamy head that stayed thought beer. Left some cloudy lacing on glass. Flavor had the caramel malt but a decent citrus in the mix. Refreshing on the palate, good pale ale. Thanks Eric.

Bottle bought after playing in the Wichita Jazz Festival. The aroma promises more hops than the flavor delivers.

This is one of my favorite beers. The hop load is almost perfect for a Pale Ale, IMHO.

Bottle courtesy of ericandersnavy. Pours a slightly cloudy amber with a half finger beige head. The nose is malt and light citrus. The taste follows suit with the aroma, but there’s an added pine bitterness in the finish. Medium bodied. Average, but very drinkable. Thanks Eric!

Traded bottle from ericandersnavy. Very nice, characteristic EPA. You can really pick up on the caramel malt in the aroma. The hops really show up in the flavour and it finishes with a nice medium bitterness.

Bottle poured an off-white head with some lace and a hazy golden amber body. Smells of pineapple, honey, and biscuit. Tastes the same. Finish has a good bitterness and a little sweetness.

Sampled at the Flying Saucer in Little Rock. Pours a dark, ruddy copper with quite a bit of caramel aroma. Taste has a small amount of hop bitterness, but is very smooth and quite refreshing.
