Kind of grapefruit nose. Orange with a little head. Hoppy apricot taste, dusty. "It's like a basement" said Bill.

More AMerican pale ale to me, but decent nonetheless. To begin with, it is very drinkable. Well brewed mix between the ever warring factions of malt and hops. Slightly sweet with a nice dry finish.

12 fl oz bottle. Copper coloured and clear. Throws a medium-sized off-white head. Dry-hopped hoppy aroma with a decent dose of citrus and rich malts. Medium-bodied. Some bitterness in the finish. Very drinkable.

Orange colored with a moderate head. Carmel malt aroma, somewhat sweet. The finish is very dry and slightly bitter. Very drinkable.

Aroma is light and mildly hoppy. Flavor is light on the tongue but lacks nothing in complexity. There’s a lemony twang, as well as some sweetness and citrusy hops. Super-drinkable, good summer/lawnmower beer.

Thanks to dberger624 for sending me the magic of the Magic Hat brew assortment!

Pours a sparkling copper body and a towering cream-colored head… sheets of lacing! The aroma is very floral. Favor bring some funkiness.. It’s like apricots, foot sweat, a woodsy hop or some sort… Oh, maybe it’s Willamette? … And a slightly toasty and beady caramel malt. I pick up some spruce, fruity plums, peaches, apples, and some rich compost dirt. A rather decent PA… Hey, Dan lives in PA.. !

Bottle - poured out with a thin white head. Sweet aroma; somewhat hoppy. First Magic Hat experience and I’d have to say it’s a lot sweeter than I expected. Watered down Sweet & Sour flavor with a very subtle bitter finish. "Decent."

For a fairly large commercial ale, Fat Angel does well for itself. Wide distribution ales don't usually work for me, but FA delivers every time. Nice ale, yet not for the beginner (novices are better suited for a #9).
