Brewed by Marzonis Brick Oven & Brewing Co.
Style: American Pale Ale
Duncansville, Pennsylvania USA

Bomber via Bill. The beer pours to a clean bright glowing orange body with a nice creamy white head and nice lacing. The aroma is piney limes and has lots of pale malts. The flavor is piney, resiny, and finishes very toasty. The palate has a dry bready but moderate mouthfeel to it. Nicely carbonated.

Clear dark amber body under a resilient frothy off-white head. Smells like lime oil Vick’s Vap-O-Rub over dusty crystal malt. Lots more of that effervescent, oily hopping in the flavor, it’s a lime pine thing. That’s over gently toasted pale and crystal malt. Long-lasting resinous pine finish. Good APA - lots of interesting hop character to dig into.

Clear coppery body, off-white creamy head with good retention. Sweet odd/delicate hopping. Sort of a sweet clovery or herbal hop. Not sure what it is but it is nice. Light feet aroma too; maybe old hops? Taste is moderately interesting but light. Bitterness kicks in in the end. Okay overall, maybe the hops could be fresher or brighter.

Draught at the brewery. Cloudy, unfiltered sharp orange color, bright in appearance. Mild sugary hop nose, with a decent amount of yeast esters as well. Flavor is light, body is moderately frothy, just tastes pale and empty, I guess, especially up front. Most of the flavor is in the finish. Bitterness is decent for an APA, most of the flavor being from the yeast, sorta tastes like a homebrew, actually. Malty and chewy, with more bittering than flavor from the hops. Still, overall it’s fresh-tasting and refreshing, but common.

This one was great. Dark straw pour with aroma of perfumy florals, fruity esters, and hopcit. Tastes very fruity, with well balanced hops and citrus elements at the finish. Palate is medium, hoppy, and complex.

Great fruity, hop oil aroma - grapefruit and light malt. Medium tea brown, hazy, with off-white head. Light medium carbonation with heavy watery body. Starts with fruity sweet, medium bitter, and light acidity. Finishes with medium acidity and bitterness. After is pleasingly bitter. A very nice pale ale.
