Commercial Description:
Brewed with hefty amounts of European malts and four kinds of American hops, it delivers a blast of hop aromas, a rich middle of malt and hops, and a thrilling finish. It weighs in at 6.5 % alcohol by volume. Why squeeze such a big brew into a little can? Because we think fun in the great outdoors calls for great beer. Our cans go where bottled beers can't, where flavorless canned beers don't belong. And no matter where you drink Dale's Pale Ale, our can protect it from light and oxidation far better than bottles do.

Northern Brewer for bittering, Cascade and Columbus for flavor, and a big, post-boil addition of Centennial for aroma.

Hops, piney and itrusy, on the nose, some caramel. The appearance is very true to the style, amber coloor, white head. The flavor is caramel, orange peel, citrus. The finish is bittering from citrus hops. Medium mouthfeel, maybe a little thin. Decent Pale Ale.

$15.50-12 pack in NJ,Witty’s-love the price on this one...nice amber pour, big fizzy head..flavors of big hops, citrus, caramel malts and more hops to finish..I personally feel that Pale Ale’s should not exceed 50 ibu’s (stone,sierra,flyingdog) or they should just be classified an IPA..Dale’s at 65 ibu and 6.5abv is 110% ipa territory...I wonder why oskar blues doesn’t make a regular ipa? anyway this beer is still great, pale ale, ipa whatever, for this price and taste I’ll be drinking these babys..

sorry, this is not pale ale. ipa for sure. but don’t get me wrong. it is wonderful. a daily drinker for sure. not a huge beer, but certainly no weakling either. i oddly rate this higher than the average for great divide fresh hop. that is a far better brew. huh???

On tap at Nashville’s Music City Brew Festival. Amber body with a nice white head. This one was one of the better pale ales I had at the festival. The flavor has a great balance of pale and amber malt with a nice pine hop presence for balance.

12oz can - The ongoing search for a good beer in a can continues. A good but forgettable take on the style. A waxy mouthfeel set me off.

Can, 355ml - Clear amber orange beer with an orange off-white head. Aroma is sweet malty with notes of citrusy hops, spices, lychee and caramel. Flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, orange zest and floral hops. Very balanced and enjoyable beer! Deserves it’s high ranking.

Had this at Oskar Blues with their Heatseeker hamburger. This was the perfect complement to the burger. I like the way they balance hops with citrus and sweetness. Mouthfeel was crisp and the finish lingered on through the buffalo sauce.
