Commercial Description:
An American style pale ale, this brew is hopped four times using plentiful quantities of Cascade and Columbus hops. The flavor is balanced by a subtle maltiness obtained from five varieties of malted barley and a slight fruitiness, to produce a classic beer in the style of the Pacific Northwest. A clean crisp ale with distinctive hop aroma.

Courtesy of FlacoAlto. Citrus/hop notes dominate the aroma. Pale gold with a finger thick head that dissipates to nothing. Mellow hop flavor dominates and makes it bitter, but approachable and quenching.

i hope that this beer was simply a few months past its prime and not the way it’s supposed to taste, but i don’t know. this beer sucked. straw-pale, with more presence of acid and phenols than of malt and hops. if everyone who has rated this beer had tasted what i just tasted, this beer would be near the bottom of the APA totem pole....if i can get a fresh bottle (doubtful?) i’ll give it another shot.

I hope I got the right beer here. Says Pale Ale on the lable but the body was dark gold with the big white head and lots of lacing, Aroma was more on the barley grain side. Flavor was bitter for myself. Little less bitterness and this would be a good refreshing beer.

This pours a huge head that completely fills the glass. As the head breaks into chunky large bubbles and slips into the glass, a medium yellow beer appears below. Decent hop aroma that has a citric tartness which accompanies it. Some mustiness as well. The flavor is balanced between sweet and bitter, but delivered with a flat dry palate and thin dry finish. Thanks to Wohlfs for this one!

Hey its got a monkey on the cap! Thanks to wohlfs for the bottle. Lightly hazed amber body topped by a pillow of whipped egg whites. Superb glass lace. The aroma is nice and hoppy. Citrus hops. The flavor is quite bitter for the style, border-line IPA. Light sweetness dominated by the hops. A slight hint of metallic peeks out at the end. Light-medium body. Spritzy mouth-feel. Very refreshing. Not bad.

Nice Pale ale. Pours light golden with thick white head. Smells of fruites perhaps graipfuits. Taste assures the smell with its grapefruit and hop taste. Would buy this again.

Bottle. Clear light amber in color with a white head. Good lacing. Slight skunk could be from sitting out in the great Arizona sunshine while I drink this. Floral and citrus hop aroma. Highly bitter for a pale ale. Light to medium bodied. Hops overpower the malt in taste. Bits of caramel malt and crystal malt peek out here and there. Decent.
