Commercial Description:
Firestone Pale Ale offers a rich, crisply hopped character with a medium malt profile. Nuances of toffee and vanilla unfold across a bright, clean texture. Dry hopping establishes an assertive American hop aroma and flavor.

Golden brown body with a heady froth of white bubbles. Aroma is nice. Floral hops softly grace the nose. Taste is recessed for a pale ale, a little too sweet for my liking. Vanilla undermines the palate here. Not a bad beer, but to me, its unbalanced and not drinkable on a repeated basis.

Nice floral hop aroma. Pours a golden yellow, white head. Satisfyingly hoppy, with a nice bitter finish. A good pale.

6 pack from Vegas. Gold with light foam with hints at clumps. Rich grapefruit hop aroma. Flavour is every bit as good as the scent promised. Very drinkable, very tasty and very hoppy. I notice the vanilla early but the toffee I just get under the hops in the finish.

12oz bottle from Bruno’s in Orange Beach Alabama on vacation - Poured golden with a big white head. Great aromas of floral and pine hops over caramel malts. Flavor starts qut quite hoppy as well. Good pine and slight citrus flavor blends well with the solid malt background. Quite tasty and refreshingly clean on the palate. Nice brew.

Thanks to brewblackhole for this one! Pours a wonderful golden yellow color with a white head. AWESOME crisp hop aroma along with caramel and toffee. Great clean hop flavor to it as well. Nice malt backing as well. This would be a perfect brew to sit outside with on a warm summer day!

Sweet orange and spicy hop on the nose. Moderate hop and alcohol flavor in the glass. I thought it was a solid APA.

Haven’t had a lot of Pale Ale’s yet, but I would have to put this one at the top of my list so far. Really enjoy the flavoring, but beyond that there’s something I can’t put my finger on. I always have a good time when drinking this beer.

Decent, light bodied pale ale. Nice hoppy aroma, but lacking an assertive taste as the description says. On the good side, low carbonation and light palate make this extremely drinkable and thirst quenching.
