Nectar Ales Pale Nectar

Formerly brewed at Firestone Walker Brewing Co.
Style: American Pale Ale
Paso Robles, California USA

Clear gold-orange. Nose fruity, some citrus and sweetness. An unusually large amount of orange-citrus in this one, tart and sharp. Finishes quite sweete, some caramel. Sticky mouthfeel. Decent stuff here.

(Bottle) Pours a clear golden-amber body with a large white head. Citrus aroma. Mild hoppy flavor. Bitter finish.

This was an excellent pale ale. It had a balance of hops and malt that were a pleasure to drink. The color was of light amber with a nice head that dissapated before the ale was consumed. The finish was smooth and worthy of buying another. This was confusing to find. It is bottled as "Pale Nectar".

Bottled as "Pale Nectar". Clear amber gold with a nice eggshell head. Aroma of maltiness and very floral hops. Taste has notes of moderately sweet malt, caramel, citrus/grapefruit and floral hops. Good level of sweetness with a pleasantly bitter aftertaste. Mouthfeel is medium/full and round on the palate with lively carbonation. Good lacing and head retention. Doesn’t stand out but is a solid quaffable traditional APA.

This one pours a slightly hazy orange color with and good sized off white head that threatened to overflow the glass on a regular pour. The head dropped fairly quickly to a topping of bubbles but did leave great looking lacing around the glass. The nose is defiantly kicking with hops. There are notes of citrus and pine here as well as a slightly sweet malt undertone, caramel I believe. A nicely balanced taste is here with an emphasis on hops. There is a nice citrus hop taste at the front that is followed by a malty caramel flavor with a slight bittering at the end. This brew also has a little bit of bite to it, which is nice. Good mouthfeel about medium with good carbonation. Pretty good drinkability as I could throw a few of these back easily. Not a bad pale ale at all with good hopping so if you come across it give it a shot.

it was ok when i lived in eureka and could get a 6 pack for about 3 bucks.although not really into it now that its 7 bucks.just not really my thing.

Gold hue with thin white fluffy head. Aroma is exploding with casscade hops and floral notes. Flavor is a dirty mouthfeel and contains grapefruit, earth, honey, flower and those wonderful hops. So much better than the frist time i had this. An apology to Humboldt brewing for the nasty rating i gave this in my beginning beer tasting days.

Pours a golden color with a little red to it. Tastes and smells extremely hoppy. Alot of flavor. Tastes quite good. Very crisp and refreshing.
