Pint tap at ratten hum. Aroma of old spice, musk, and hay. Tasty hops, hay, and citrus. Delightful.

Golden/amber with thin head. Pine/citrus and orange nose. Spicy citrus hop flavor, malt only balances. Nice, spicier than anticipated.

Great pale ale. On tap at Rattle n Hum. I typically don’t thrill over standard pale ales, but this fella stands apart from the pack, perhaps because it is much hoppier than its peers. Anyway, pours a mild copper hue with a fine white head. Nose of citrusy hops. Flavor is heavy on the hops with a some malt thrown in to offset. Nice, bitter finish with a sticky aftertaste. Delicious.

Tap at RNH. Pale golden pour with a sticky white head. The nose is very hoppy. Lots of lean pale malt base with a fresh hoppy nose. A bit of pine and light resinous hops. Very hoppy up front. A bit of light fruity character (mango, grapefruit) along with a soft piny spice. Lingering, fairly assertive bitterness. It’s pretty nice really. It’s up in IPA territory. Another fresh, hoppy beer from the folks at Lagunitas.

Bottles...that’s right, great session beer. Pours a copper golden body with one finger white head. Nose of floral hops, vines, and green leaves. Flavors of light sweet malts with low residual sugars, bright crisp hops that don’t overpower and some nice light orange zest and scallions. Really a fun beer.

Bottle, thanks to blankboy (I think). Medium yellow, quit light and clear really, nice foamy white head. Aroma is pretty standard for the style - fruity, a little sweet. Taste is surprisingly really hoppy - sharp citrus and pine, very bitter. Underlying sweet malt, light lively body. I really nice flavourful pale ale.

Cask at Toad in the Hole. Hazy honey color with low soapy head. Citrus and floral up front with a bit of plasticky phenol. Fresh apricot and tangerine shine over a sweet, simple, slightly malty base. Finish is quite bitter and slightly resinous. Even if I had never tried Real Ale Full Moon Pale Rye on cask, this beer might be enough to turn me on to American style ales from the firkin.

Sampled from the bottle at the Bavarian Lodge, Lisle,IL. for a Lagunitas tapping and sampling evening. Poured a hazy, orangy amber, with a light, bubbly white head and light streaks and dots of lacing. The aroma was a nice balanced combo of citrus as tangerines, and piney resin. The flavor exemplified more of a piney hop bitterness with some supportive malt. The body was medium to light with good carbonation. Another sessionably flavorful brew from Tony Magee
