Commercial Description:
Like traditional pale ales, Tankhouse Ale has a deep copper-red colour. We use five different malts to produce a complex malty texture. The most dominant character of our Pale Ale is the hop. The spicy Cascades is used to give an assertive hop flavour, aroma and bitterness to our ale. The result is a satisfying and complex-tasting beer. Our brewmaster developed this recipe 20 years ago and it has remained his favorite drink of choice

Bottle. Copper with cream head. Mostly Hops and slight citrus and grassy flavour/smell. Moderately bitter, but not overpowering. Would drink again.

Tasted 4/15/08. 12oz bottle. Filtered with an amber hue. Ring of medium bubbled off-white head. Nice hop nose. Caramel citrus and grapey. Nice! Light to medium bodied with a really nice flavor. Mild effervescence. Crisp body with dry hop palate. Mild bitterness. Good fun session!

Bottle from Cracked Kettle. Amber color. Earthy, oily citric hopaaroma. Earthy hopbitter flavor, citric with licorice. Blackcurrant. Longish aftertaste. Hint of metal in the finish. The balance could be better, but this is a tasty ale.

Bottle. Clear dark copper with short white foamy head. Hoppy aroma. As aroma suggests, taste is a great blend of hops and malts that leads to a bubbly, creamy dry (but not too dry) ale.

Bottle from Cracked Kettle. Copper body. Decent head. Hoppy nose. Nice smooth ale. Lots of malt flavours. Quite spicy too. Prickly to the tongue. Really enjoyable.

Pours a clear copper with tons of rising bubbles and a finger of dense, off-white head. that leaves behind patchy lace. The nose is of biscuity malt and earthy hops; pleasant but fairly uninspiring. Light to medium-bodied, soft and slick with a moderately bitter finish. The flavor is considerably more impressive than the aroma would indicate. Pale malt with an interesting blend of spicy and earthy hops; similar to an ESB only a bit spicier. This one is pretty darn tasty; a very solid, quaffable session brew. I only wish that I had more than this one bottle.

bottle- not surprised at all to see this rated so highly. It was tried at the end of my evening, and my palate, though shot, still enjoyed at lot of hop flavor, and significant grain bill complexity.

A beer with bite! There’s a lot of hops crammed into Tankhouse and I find too few beers have that kind of a flavourful punch to them. A repeater, for sure.
