Commercial Description:
This reddish ale is generously hopped throughout the brewing process. Extra flavor and aroma are obtained by adding raw hops during fermentation - a process known as dry hopping. A medium-bodied style unique to the Fox River Brewing Company.

Pours a clear amber colour with a small white head. Lightly hopped, lighter in mouthfeel very little bitterness with a soft citrus finish. Aroma is faint of hops and grapefruit.

Pour is medium golden with very weak white head. Aroma is of hop resin. Flavor is somewhat decent but is masked by the big sourness bite that hits you full on. Must be the hop resins. Other than that, not much going on here. This is a lower quality American Pale. Would not buy again.

Amber color with a modest off-white head. Some malt, dough and hint of resin hops in the aromas. Mild pale malt flavors with a bit of honey and zest. A really light and boring pale ale in my book.

On draught at both brewpub/brewery locations (Appleton and Oshkosh).
Rating base on Appleton version - Pours a clear light copper amber brew with a fast dissolving off-white head that has some good lacing and leaves behind a film top and ring. Aroma of light caramel malt, plenty of citrus and grapefruit zest, and a touch of honey. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonation with more grapefruit/citrus zest flavor than caramel malt. Finish is slightly dry, with a piney/grapefruit bitterness that lingers around after the finish. The Oshkosh version has a powdery biscuit malt flavor during the taste and in the finish

On tap at Fox River Brewing Co. pub. Poured a rich copper color with nice white head, great lacing as I drank the beer. Tasted hops through out and thought the beer tasted similar to Victory’s Hop Devil. I would order this beer again, I give Fox River Brewing credit for creating a quality pale ale.
