Orangy gold with a nice creamy white head. It has light malts and a bit of a spice in the aroma. It’s fresh with a slightly sour sweetness and lighter malty taste with a nice mild bitterness. I tried it with a Vermont sharp white cheddar and they were very nice together.

Amber colour similar to Bass, tastes like an "everyman" beer spiked with a generous addition of PNW hops. Taste is reminiscent of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale (watered down that is). Aroma and aftertaste from some bastardized Belgian-esque yeast strain. Odd beer.

This is an easy sitting outside at the beach house at night beer. The front is suprising yet the back leaves something to be desired. Pours nicely and suprisingly heavier than one would expect from the first taste. A good beer to have around.

nicely balanced session beer -- doesn’t try too hard - and doesn’t need to -- would rather have a humble patience though

A boring beer, especially boring since it comes from magic hat and you somewhat expect at least something unique. This beer is fine, but tastes a bit "sandy" to me. Light where it should be heavy and heavy where it should be light. Pours nicely and looks like an amber pale ale, but the taste is mediocre and very un-remarkable.

Nice amber color with a good thick head. Not as stong tasting as I would expect from this type. Slightly sweet. A pleasant, but not memorable beer.
