Great Lakes Burning River Pale Ale

Brewed by Great Lakes Brewing Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Cleveland, Ohio USA

Bottle thanks to DrBayern. Pours an amber hue with a nice head on top. Aroma is full of citrusy hops and sweet maltiness. Flavor is very much like the aroma, a smooth mixture between the two. The sweet caramel malts come in afterwards to balance out the citrus and pine hops. A very good APA.

I had very little head on this amber-shaded brew. Pretty weak for an IPA, but enjoyable nonetheless. Seemed to go stale a bit too quickly, however.

A great beer. These are really good ice cold with a hearty chili. at least thats what I had it with. Very drinkable.

This beer is a great pale ale for the price. The hop note is very noticeable. Not tasting the citrus as mentioned.

Golden amber in color, nice white head. Smells nicely friuty, a little caramel malt. Surprisingly hoppy, not a grat balance between hops and malt, a little too wheaty a flavor. Goes down smooth, a nice beer. Winking Lizard Tour 2007

Poured golden amber with a few bubbles, small pine scent with a medium hop bouquet, sweet malt fragrances, some citrus on the nose, nice hop bite with malt on the tongue, some sweetness in the mouth, more hop bitterness then I have experienced with other pale ales.

Pours amber with thick tan head. Malt meets hops flavor. Pretty complex pale ale. Perfect on the palate. (Really fullbodied for a pale ale). Some astringent on the finish followed by nice bitterness. Good beer.

Pours a clear bright amber with a full white head. Spicy hoppy aroma. Rich sweet malt flavor with citrus notes and spices. An assertiveAmerican ale with more character than most. A worthy effort.
