BlackDonald (1040), North Carolina, USA Jul 30, 2008 This is a great take on the style, a bit hoppier than I expected. Agressive flavors, with some citrus fruitiness and a strong, but sweet caramel backbone. Refreshing and very enjoyable. dwaggs2 (93), Warrensburg, Missouri, USA Jul 18, 2008 Flat Branch is a great smaller brewery out of Columbia Mo. This beer was a pretty decent pale ale. Poured yellow in color with a white head that diminsed quickly. Had on tap as with all the Flat Branch beers. Is a great beer. If you are ever in Columbia check this place out. It is a great restaurant/microbrewery. They know beer. sneagrams3 (1402), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Nov 20, 2007 The Dan Journal #135. Tasted 11/19/07. Growler from the Brewpub. Clear and amber ruby hued. Ring of medium bubbled white head. Medium bodied and dry. Bitter piney hops. Touch sugary and citrus. Stick with a lingering finish. Solid session. Drnk_McDermott (1545), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA Aug 8, 2007 Draft sampler, 4 Aug. 07. Coppery pale ale color. A light hop smell, but a very aggressive Pacific hop taste. Tries mighty hard to play big daddy to the brewer’s British IPA. Caramel malts a-plenty almost keep this bitter brew in check. ImFatYoureFat (3), USA does not count Aug 6, 2007 Decent beer who’s main draw is a higher alcohol content. Aroma is more plain and unpronounced than most of flat branch’s other beers. The flavor is predominantly bitter with little nuance.
