Middle Ages Syracuse Pale Ale

Brewed by Middle Ages Brewing
Style: English Pale Ale
Syracuse, New York USA

Copper color, off white head. Malty aroma, fairly mild, caramelly. Light caramel starts out the flavor followed by some lighter hops. Decent balance but not overly exciting. Lighter to medium bodied. Decent, but fairly bland.

on draft middle ages: this one was tight! better then their ipa. which usually i would like the ipa more....the pale ale was nicely hopped with a good balance of malt with bit of sweetness. more hops then i expected....highly drinkable. let us ride king arthur!

Clear amber with an average size head that starts to fall quickly. Malt aroma, no hops coming through. The flavor is balanced but lacks the intensity of a really great Pale Ale. Slightly astringent palate with a lack of finish. Light bodied and drinkable, but nothing remarkable overall.

On-tap at the ALe House in Syracuse. Bland, watery, nothing much here. Unoffensive at best. Some faint floral hops and bit of citrus flavour on end. On malty,s weet side but an Ontario brew. Like their hoppy beers and their stouts

Pours a one-fingered white head that stays leaving some lace. Ugly cloudy amber color. Light carbonation. Hoppy nose. Starts and finishes with a sour apple taste, not typical of a pale, MA’s Impaled Ale is better. $1.85 for a 12oz bottle from Hoosick Street Discount Bev. Troy, NY.

Bottle, from Halftime.Fruity aroma apricot/peach/banana.Clean orange color. Good head that faded quickly,though I did pour quickly. Bitter sweet flavors. lemon and orange, hints of grass, carmel, butter. Thin body, kinda creamy, though thin, NIce bitter, lemon/metallic, finish. Good brew. easy drinking. Just a little over the lawnmower limit.

Crystal clear, copper/golden ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Good retention with ink-blot lacework. The aroma is of a light, apricot-peach blend, bandage and sweat. The flavor is almost totally nondescript. Not offensive. Perfectly balanced, but extremely thin and watery like seltzer water. Very light bodied and fizzy. Short, crisp, clean finish.

Clear gold, creamy white head. Light aromas of buttered grapefruit and lemons, toast, with a hint of caramel. Very bland buttery hop and sweet malt flavor balance things out. Thin watery body, medium carbonation, dry citrusy finish. For what it’s worth, like my best friends mom, it certainly does go down easy.....
