Angeloregon (2023), Portland, Oregon, USA Mar 1, 2007 No THIS is what a pale ale should be. I am still not sure it is a pale ale since it is so hoppy and more orange-golden in color than I’d expect. The NW hops (Cascade, Columbus, Amarillo) are perfectly balanced in this very easy drinking Amercan ale. Great! Great! Great! BitterPoet (54), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA May 18, 2006 This is one of the freshest pale ales I’ve ever had. Great balance of hop and malt. Round maple notes and ash bottom. Pineapple and mango. Bursting with freshness. Possibly the pinnacle of pale ale pursuits! jschlunt (8), Los Angeles, California, USA does not count Apr 3, 2003 A really great beer. One of my favorite pale ales. Clean and very smooth. rmussman (695), California, USA Mar 2, 2007 MMMM another good Marin brewing company beer. I am really falling for this brewery. Pours with a thick white head that lasts forever. Has a cloudy brown hue. Mouthfeel is super smooth and flavor is full of hoppy goodness and strong malts with little to no bitterness.
