Right now, all Stevens Point Brewery products are on sale at my local Hy-Vee, so I’ve sampled a few. The Cascade Pale Ale is by far the best. It’s in a league with much more expensive beers. It pours a dark amber, organish/coppery color, and has a head that lasts a decent amount of time. It also has plenty of flavor, and good thick mouthfeel. If it were always $5, it would be my regular beer of choice. Unfortunately, I seem to have bought them out of Cascade Pale Ale. I wonder if they will order more? Perhaps I should ask.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 4, 2007 In the bottle from HyVee CB. Pours a dark gold with a medium to thick sustainable head in my pilsner glass. Mild toasted malt aroma. Medium soda cracker-like flavor that cannot mask too much watery metals. This is only a medium-class pale ale. Hop content not very artistic. sliffy (2012), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 2, 2007 Bottle: Pours a clear orange tinged copper color with a small white head, that does leave some nice lacing. Aroma, citrus hops, pale malts. Flavor, doughy and nutty malt notes, with a light citrus/orange hop flavor very little bitterness on the finish. The body is on the lighter side. topherh (936), Kearney, Missouri, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 17, 2007 12oz no date from hopdog, thanks Stephen! Pours a clear slightly dark orange with a 1/2 finger whtie head, low retention. Aroma is sweaty with some mild grapefruit and floral hops, a bit of caramel malts. Flavor is a litle more tart and acidic than what I remember this thing being. There is still some citrus and floral hops, light caramel malts and a wee bit of wet paper. Overall bitterness is pretty low. Thin body with moderate carbonation. About as good as I remember--slightly better than average.
