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.

Pours amber from the tap at Four Peaks with a trim white head. Plenty of hops on the nose and a light malty body. Very forgettable in its averageness.

On tap at Scottsdale location. I’ve had this in bottle but never on draft before. Pours a clear dark gold with off-white head. Nose is light floral hops and citrus. Taste is very similar with a malt background mixed in. Light mouth feel. An ok beer – definitely better on tap

Far better on tap. Far better at cellar temperature, as was meant for the style. Positively mediocre if served extra cold or from the bottle (more like a rating of a 2). Pours an amber color with minimal head. Nice Fuggles and Kent Goldings aroma. A very refreshing beer on tap in the summer times, though has the potential to be mediocre just as often, as previously noted.

Nice mild brew sampled at the brewery. Copper in color with an average 1/4-inch head. Aroma is more malt than hops but both are present. Not much to write home about here but it is a good session brew.

Bottle from hellbilly. Thanks man! Pours a amber/copper with a thin head. The aroma is nice and floral with some citrus as well. Malt comes through as a little sweet and bready with caramel and toffee as well. Nice floral/fruity hops up front with a nice malt middle - bread, caramel, toffee and a medium hoppy finish. Pretty fruity. Light yet flavorful. The best I had that evening, but I don’t know if that says too much.
