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.

Sampler. Pale golden color. Thin white head. Light citrus aroma, some breadiness. Very sweet malt character, hints of cotton candy flavor. All followed by a West Coast hop bitterness. Very balanced. A nice American Pale Ale. Very nice.

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.

Pale, clear copper with the same frothy head as the others. Good herbal hops in the nose. The malt isn’t as big as in the Millenium Ale at Coast, but this one is more bitter. Good, crisp lingering bitterness takes over after the malt peks in the middle.

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??

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.

Light citrus, caramel, diacetyls in the nose and flavor. Hoppy, but not over-wrought. This isn't going to set the world on fire, but a good complement to the chow at this pub. Nice clipped hoppy finish, good mouth.

Orange, tan head. Nicely spicy, savory, peppery aroma. Good malt base up front - caramel and toffee, the usual players - then a peppery, savory hop finish. Pretty tasty. Sampled at the 2005 Music City Brewer’s Fest.
