Dundee American Pale Ale

Brewed by High Falls Brewing Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Rochester, New York USA

A pretty good pale ale. The aroma is a bit citrusy and flowery, as it should be with that hop profile. Pours an reddish color, with a white creamy head. Just the right bitterness and kinda hoppy, could be more hoppy but it’s ok. Doesn’t overwhelm my palate either.

Crazy that I’m drinking a sampler of Dundee products after bathing in Honey Brown for a good portion of my college days... here goes: golden orange body with a steadily effervescent movement; a bubbly head that settles into a half-inch off-white cloud--not bad! Fresh spruce and spring-like fluttering scents, light and soft... spritzy... thin and soft through the palate--weak on presence, long on aftertaste... the scent didn’t portend the taste which is a bit lagerish and heavy at the throat... I had doubts--which is never good when sampling a new beer--a veiled attempt, but drinkable...

Amber color; the same white, almost creamy head as the other Dundee’s beers. Nose malty and piney; light citrus. Flavor predominantly bitter, piney hops; orange; some bread in the finish. Medium-light body. Drinkable but a long way from the best for the money.

This actually reminded me of an IPA overall. Good healthy amber color/white frothy head. Smelled moderate of juicy fruity hops. The flavor is of moderate fruity hops and caramal, but watered down. Ends on a clean bitter somewhat refreshing note. I think this is one of dundees best beers next to the IPA, but nothing compared to countless other brews of this style out there.

The best thing about this beer is the appearance: Nice rich copper with a frothy white head. Aroma was offputting and the flavor was fruity hops. Thin and watery. Fruity bitter finish. Not very good to me.

Pours a reddish brown translucent color with a smallw hite head. Aroma of hops malt and a ltitle spices. Flavor of hops, caramel, spices, citrus. One of the better Dundees, but that aint saying much.

Bottle into Sam Adams New Lager Glass. Thick cream-colored head that sustains. Patches of lacing sporadic. Deep amber color. Aroma with hoppy floral note. Floral flavor with mild hop and complementing malt and some orange. Low carbonation, dry aftertaste.
