Pangaea Liljas Pulling Boat Pale Ale

12oz bottle. Clear gold pour with a medium off-white head. Balanced malt and hop aroma that is very dank; missing the crisp factor. The flavor gives some crisp hops and a bit of malt before a bitter finish. Meh.

Aroma is light and hoppy - taste is heavy on green apple, really bright with a crispness and hoppy bite that is very refreshing. Great pairing for Friday night fish fry in WI.

Pours a rather unattractive dirty orange with very little head. Sits like dirty water in the glass. Some caramel, hop and dirt in the aroma. Not bad in the flavor, with some citrus, some hay, decent malt, and a touch of bitter in the finish. Better than I thought it would be, but not great.

Pours turbid orange with off-white head. Nose is caramel malt and hopcitrus. Tastes caramel malty, with lemongrassy hops, citrus, and some canteloupy flavors. A bit thin of palate heft.

Bottle Pours a hazy golden with a small white head. The head leaves quickly. The laceing is fairly good. Aroma is good. Toasted malts, bread, and caramel. Has a good carbonation. An okay mouthfeel. The flavor is citrusy and sweet. The texture is watery. Has a decent finish. Has a medium body. Not a Very refreshing. Has a good amount of beerness but lacks much depth.

12oz. Bottle: Aroma of slight toasted malts, slight hops, grains, and slight herbs. Poured amber in color with a medium-sized, creamy, off-white head that lasted throughout. Cloudy. Sparkling. Full of small and medium-sized particles throughout. Good lacing. Flavor is lightly sweet. Tastes of malts, grains, slight caramel, light hops, and some herbs. Medium body. Slick, lightly dry texture. Average carbonation. Lightly sweet, slightly bitter, malt, caramel, and hop finish is lightly dry.

Thick amber with a small quickly dissipating tan head. Bread, caramel and citrus on the aroma, but the mix seems a bit off. Flavors don’t translate over to the taste very well as all I get is burnt hops and malt that lead to a medium bitter finish. Somewhat watery and grainy. Ok at best.

12 oz bottle. Poured a cloudy golden color, significant off-white head. Aroma was slightly hoppy, some citrus notes. Flavor was mediocre, it was somewhat hoppy but not enough for me. Quite a bit of malt flavor, which seemed unbalanced for an APA. Not terrible, but I wouldn’t try it again.
