Eel River Certified Organic Extra Pale Ale

Brewed by Eel River Brewing Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Fortuna, California USA

An orange beer with an OK, but disappearing light brown head. The aroma is sweet with a sharp hop note. The flavor is sweet spicy and hoppy, again somewhat sharp, but also notes of fruit in the back ground - primarily oranges. The body is boringly thin.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Slightly hazy amber golden with a small, off-white head. Archetypical American aroma of caramel and aroma hops. Light and somewhat watery body with dry hops and some notes of overripe fruit. 290806

Bottled. Hazy golden, average head. Light citric nose. Medium dry with light-medium body and suprisingly low hop rate. Very buttery malt character, low bitterness. Laid back.

Bottled. Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Strong fruitish hoppy aroma with some bitterish notes. Sweet malts as well as fruity hops in flavour. Pleasant bitter fruitish aftertaste.

(12oz bottle) Off-white head atop a hazy amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, butterscotch, caramel, some floral, light orange blossom. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, earthy, some butterscotch, light floral. Light grapefruit as well, but it is stronger in the swallow/burp (caramel shows in the burp too)). Light-medium body.

Bottled
Orangy brown, decent creamy head, some lace. Delicious pale ale - hoppy nose. Hoppy, malty, both very balanced. Nothing wrong here, well-done pale ale.

12oz bottle. Poured a medium to deeper golden color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of yeast, spiciness, lightly fruity, and citrus. Tastes follow suit. Fizzy and over carbonated body that completely detracted from the tastes. Overall the aromas and tastes were on the light side and nothing seemed to work well together.
