Great Divide Fresh Hop Pale Ale

Wonderful aroma. Real clean and crisp. Slightly above average for a fresh hop beer

On draught at Redlight Redlight (Orlando, FL): Pours a clear copper. Nose is faint, but I can sense earthy hops, grass, and citrus. Typical IPA flavors with added honey and caramel. Mild carbonation and medium bodied. This ale is lacking that bitter punch in the finish that I’m expecting, or more so wanting. Drinkability: Smooth and enjoyable, but a little boring. Rebuy: Maybe. #187 on 07112009, DG.

Tap at bro tucks. Clear orange/amber pour. White head. Aroma of grapefruit, caramel, and light honey. Flavor is loaded with grapefruit, light caramel, and light bready notes. Resinous on the finish.

Gift from Greg, thought this would be like sierra nevada’s harvest, but really nice use of the "wet" hops. kind of weak aftertaste, but a really nice APA.

Pours out clear copper with lots of creamy head. Taste is sweet and hoppy. Flavors of citrus, caramel, bread and pine. Crisp clean bitter finish. Great fresh hop ale. Good stuff!

Ugly pour...cloudy, murky orange, no head or lacing. Aroma is butterscotch, honey, and earthy pine hops. Flavor is sweet upfront and bitter in the finish. Palate the sweet is cloying. I probably should try this when it is fresh....

pours clear and copper with big white head. aroma is grassy and citrus. mouthful has a big breadiness to it, then followed with the big green citrus. i like the hops but not so much the breadiness...

Pours clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is pine and citrus hops. Taste is the same plus bread and caramel malt. Smooth, soft palate with moderate to low carbonation. Drinkable and enjoyable.
