Pours a medium clear amber with a small head that disappears quickly. Picked up a little roastiness in the aroma as well as a sweetness I could not quite pinpoint (maybe a bit of toffee). A light hop taste at the front of the flavor with some malts at the end. I enjoyed this one, sort of along the lines of #9 without the apricot. A solid easy drinking beer.

Clear amber with a medium off-white head. Caramel and floral hops in the nose. Flavor has notes of caramel, toffee and toasted malt with some light hop bitterness in the finish. Moderately sweet. Medium/light body with a smooth texture and moderate carbonation. Decent head retention. Solid, but nothing to seek out.

Bottle. Medium amber color with little head. Sweet and buttery, but weak, nose. Smooth, light malty flavor with some brown sugar or toffee at first, with a barely dry back end. Unfortunately it was served cold, so could use a re-rate.

Cloudy goldish, smallish head. Weak aroma, some ringwoody notes of buttered caramel. Touches of spicy hop. Flavor gets more spicy hop notes, slightly cleaner than the aroma. Clean, mild finish.

Amber color - a little cloudy with a thin head. Aroma of bread and malts. Taste is malty, very little hops and notes of citrus, yeast and caramel. Finish is a bit acidic. Nothing special here.

it had a great look and smell, but alas, they were deceiving... granted, i’m not a pale ale fan by any means, but objectively, this still wouldn’t have struck me as anything more than tolerable even if i was.

Clear light amber with some head and not much lacing. Malt in the nose. Malt flavor with a mild earthy bitterness. Very drinkable.

12 oz bottle from Humolone Red. It is a gold color, clear, with a small head that dissipates. The aroma is clean & lager-like. The flavor has some hops, is quite clean and some malt and caramel. Very drinkable.
