Commercial Description:
Our award winning 8th Street Ale is based on an English-style "Best Bitter" which is the most common ale served in British pubs. What makes 8th Street Ale uncommon is its mellow bitterness and its slightly sweet malt flavor. It's aroma is derived from rare, imported Kentish hops, and lots of them.

Draught at the brewpub
Deep blond color. The aroma is light, with piney resins. Dry mouthfeel, quite weak, with some dry toffee flavor and strong bitterness, only partial quality of the hops (piney resins). Simple.

This is one of the worst beers I have ever drank. This is the king of bathroom cleaner beers. Very cleanser flavored. Maybe they were trying to make meth and messed up and ended up with beer. All in all a top 10 avoid!

Tap and cask at Tempe. Pours a golden color with a small white head. Aroma is mild citrus hops and caramel malt. Flavor is citrusy hops and malty sweet. Nice pale ale, very drinkable.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with Sparky27. Pours a hazy golden amber with a moderate linen white head that lasted through the first two sips and left a few patches of lace. Mild aroma of citrus and malt. The flavor has a bit more of the citrus influence along with some malt and unsweetened iced tea. A bit over-carbonated for an ESB and thin bodied as well. So so.

Aroma is pleasantly subtle, hints of grapefruit and caramel. The flavor is much more heavily weighted towards the grapefruit end of the spectrum, with a bit of a metalic tang in the beginning. This is complemented by a floral finish and quite a bit of emphatic carbonation.

12 oz bottle from Sparky27. Pour is slight hazed golden, with a one inch head that falls quick. Nice lacing. Fine carbonation bubbling up to the surface. Aroma of toasted malts and mild resinous hops. Hops are subtle and earthy, very British. Taste is brighter with the hops, immediate bitterness along with the resin and toasted malt semi-sweetness. Also an interesting mineral note, followed by more of the toast flavor. Palate is thin to medium nice level of carbonation. Nicely drinkable beer, though it got a bit muddled and unclean in the longish finish. Thanks for sending this my way Eric!
