Nov 28, 2008 Updated: Mar 9, 2009Aroma is pleasantly hoppy with some caramel. Golden pour, small white head, minimal lace. Flavor follows the aroma, sweet and hoppy, but there’s a stale malt off-element in the finish. Nice tingly hop burn on the palate.

Nov 20, 2008 Pours a clear reddish hue with a small, white head. Sharp, hoppy aroma, offset by malty sweetness. Medium body reveals a great balance of malts vs. a fresh cut hop finish. A nice standard ale.

Nov 19, 2008 cascades dont come across as they should, this is one of the few (near) disappointments from great lakes. at least its well hopped -- but seems muddled and unclear. i know its not an IPA, but if its going to be this well hopped id prefer it to be at least slightly floral or sharp.

Oct 27, 2008 Pours a rich golden color with a small white head. No lacing on glass. Smell is flowery hops and malt with a slight citrus. Taste is same, nice on tongue, light carbonation and bitterness works well. Good overall IPA.

Oct 26, 2008 The name pale ale always confuses me. An american lager is much paler than a pale ale. Burning river is easy to drink. Mild bitterness. Some melanoidins. Very nice session beer.

Oct 22, 2008 Bottle. Pours an amber body with an off white head. Sweet malty nose, with a floral pine hop character. A hint of citrus and decent hop character.

Oct 20, 2008 Tasting at mcbackus 10/19. Amber pour, hops on the nose...citrus hops. Good hops, decent malt. Pretty harsh...and if you like that style, this beer is for you.
