Commercial Description:
This bright golden pale ale is reminiscent of old world brewing tradition. When drinking the ale savor the caramel malts, imported east Kent goldings hops, and the classic slight buttery aftertaste imparted by authentic London ale yeast. Periodically, you'll find us serve a "cast-conditioned" Pale Ale version of our Goat Hill, if you're patient and search hard enough. This beer derived its name from the location of our Capital building--sitting on top of a Montgomery hill were goats once grazed.

Had this on draft at the Emerald Coast Brew Fest in Pensacola, FL. Poured golden/amber with white head that didnt last too long. Floral hop aroma that was pleasant. Hop character is evident up front in the taste, but the malt come through in the end for a nice balance. Mouthfeel is good, and drinkability is good.

clear amber, frothy white head, light crisp citrus hop aroma, mild sweet malt and citrusy hop flavor, nice bitter finish, the sweet malt and citrus hops continue to tag team all the way to the bottom of the pint glass, a nice english pale ale that’s a bit on the agressive side,

Pretty good pale ale. Piney taste, defenite hop character. No distinguishable malt taste.Not watery and easy to drink. Not as hoppy as some would like.

Malty full flavor brew with a bitter hop finish. Light sweetness and acidity is an accurate description!

Draught. Pours dark gold with a small fizzy white head, mostly diminishing with fair lacing. Aroma is light malt (meal), heavy hops (flower, citrus, pine), and light yeast (dough). Light bodied, sticky texture, average carbonation and a bitter finish. Light sweetness and acidity, heavy bitterness; floral hop flavor.

Sampled at the brew pub. Wispy head and lace on top of a light copper pour. Pine and citrus on the nose with hints of fresh grain. Not strong but pleasant. The flavor has orange citrus and spicy hops on a decent malt body that is semi-sweet. Citrus in the finish also. Creamy full mouth feel with a semi-dry finish. I’m actually wondering if this was a different Pale Ale than the one described on this site. This did not taste like what is described by other raters??

Poured an amber type color with a mediocre initial head and weak lacing. The aroma was of caramel and some herbal and resinous tones. The flavor was pretty strong caramel for the style, coming off almost like there was really caramel candy in it initially. After a while (temp), the hops caught up, but this wouldn’t please a true hop head. Balanced.

On tap at the brew pub. Poured orange with a white head and great lacing. Nice floral hop nose with decent body and bitter finish. Good malt backbone. Nice surprise in Montgomery.
