Commercial Description:
This is not the original Pale Ale as brewed in far away 1993 in the back of the Old House of Richards Building in West Marin hamlet of Forest Knolls right next to little Lagunitas. It is way better. Back then the beer tasted like broccoli and kerosene and the carbonation ate right through and drained your stomach into your gut...

Bottle... Poured clear, orange with a white head, nice retention and lacing. Pineya, citrus and floral hop aroma. Foamy, well texture palate. Grainy and bread-like with a hop and malt balance. A little sweet towards the end with a lingering hop finish.

Lovely pale ale. Very close in character to the Lagunitas IPA with a dense resiny piney hop character. Dry, bitter finish. Just like I like it.

~Pours a light clear amber color with big white head. ~Strong aroma of sticky sweet grapefruity hops. Malts are present but dominated by hops. ~Bittersweet hop flavor, grapefruit, pine, and grass. Some malt backbone. Again dominated by hops. ~Medium feel, medium carbonation, very bitter finish. ~Good thing I like hops. A bit overkill for a pale ale. Taste like a IPA to me. Still good. When I am looking for a pale ale I expect something a bit more mellow on the bitterness.
