Commercial Description:
Fire Rock Pale Ale is a crisp, refreshing “Hawaiian-style” pale ale. Its signature copper color results from the unique blend of specialty roasted malts. The pronounced citrus-floral hop aroma comes from the liberal amounts of Galena, Cascade & Mt. Hood hops added to each brew.

On-tap at Jake’s Del Mar. Pours amber with a thin white head, some lace. Smells of mellow, sweet hoppiness, some malts as well. Tastes citrusy sweet, not so much hoppy citrus, just citrus. Some caramelly malt flavors and a bit metallic as well. Medium body, crisp carbonation. Tasty

This is a pretty decent pale ale. Not usually my favorite style I enjoyed the nice amberish color wtih a small head. Malt and hops are present in this surprisingly tasty beer.

Wow. Lots of colour in this one. Sweet hop aroma. Surprisingly clingy palate. This is a true pale ale with just the right amount of alcohol taste for a Hawaiian original. Solid release from Kona.

reddish pour with no head. taste of hops, small aroma of grass and a meh palate. Poured much darker than expected from a so called pale ale.

Bottle from BevMo Mission Valley. Pours a clear, copper color with a medium, white head. Decent lacing. Sweet, light hoppy aroma. Good mouthfeel. Flavor is similar to a good American Pale Ale with a nice hoppiness along with a citrusy finish.

Not a bad pale ale. I have had better. But poured a nice amber color almost orange. Nice white head that lasted a while. Very easy drink. Tasted was smooth and enjoyable.
