Commercial Description:
An original American pale ale, our XPA highlights the subtle, sophisticated flavors and aromas of our Midwestern two-row malt and imported aromatic and Munich malts. Washington-grown Mt. Hood and Fuggles hops create an extremely balanced beer with a beautiful straw color.

I don’t really remember this one...but that’s the point. If it was good, don’t you think I’d remember it? Then again, if it was really bad, I probably would remember it too. But seeing as I don’t, its most likely neither, and therefor would place it square in the "unmemorable" category.

Got this in a variety pack. Pretty much all of the four beers were very disappointing. Very weak taste and bite.Small taste of hops,but not much. Would not be trying again.

Coors light! Poured yellow with a white head. Some hop aroma and flavor. I couldn’t really get anything else. Watery all over. Slugable.

Just a touch hazy and golden . Thin head quickly fizzes away. Sour cherry aroma, woody and spicy with an underlying sweetness, almost like a belgian ale. A quick zippy bite leads to a decent malt backing. Some citrus, a little candylike sweetness, short finish. I’ve been a fan of FF for a long time, and this is not the XPA that I remember. What happened??

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy golden-amber color with a small white head that faded quickly. The aroma was sour, tangy, tarty and had a note of Sweettart candies. The flavor was tangy, tart and had a touch of citrus. There was a light yeasty undertone and a short, crisp and tart finish. Ok.

12oz. Light copper pour with white head. Aromas of hops, slight fruit, and yeah... Flavor is watery with some citrus and hops.

Draft at the Ivy League. Ok this was served way to cold but that seems to be typical of about 95% of all the drafts that most places serve. Not sure if this beer was old or just boring, most likely a combo of the two. Aroma was weak with some floral hops that quickly faded and not much else going on. Flavor had about as much hop flavor as a tunafish sandwich. This beer was bland and boring, that pretty much sums it up.

12oz bottle. Pours gold with a small, fizzy white head. Aroma of caramel and grainy malts, with light citrus and spicy hop notes. The taste is of more grainy malts with some fruit sweetness, accompanied by grassy, spicy hops and some citrus. Light bodied with average carbonation, this beer is middle of the road easily drinkable, but nothing to get excited about
