Commercial Description:
This rich tawny colored ale has an assertive hop flavor derived from a blend of the finest imported and Northwestern whole hops. The taste of a smooth malt background is quickly followed by a distinctive and slightly lingering Cascade hop finish.

Bottle: Gold, copper, nice head and lacing. Nose of creamy sweet malt, biscuit and light grassy hops. The flavor is grassy and unbalanced, tangy mouthfeel, light tart body and an odd taco-y finish. Ok.

This pale ale pours a medium orange color from a 22 oz bottle. Large white foamy head, with long lasting lacing. Aroma is citrus, lemon and brown sugar. A medium bodied Pale Ale. Malts are fruity and sweet, touch of brown sugar and caramel, lemony and fruity. Hops are kind of mild, touch of citrus and grapefruit. Kind of a milder Pale Ale. Probably closer to an amber than a pale ale. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Bottle from Safeway, Port Angeles; Nose is grainy, almost pale lagerish; except for a light note of caramel; clear dark gold with a medium straw-tinged white head; flavor is mild hop bitterness, with some malty notes, and a slightly bitter finish.

On tap at some place in Port Angeles, WA. Color was dull gold with a creamy white head. Aroma of apple, bread and fruit. Flavor was pretty sweet for style. Sweet malt, fruit and apple.

On tap at the brewery in Port Townsend, WA--Looked identical to the Boatyard Bitter but with a slightly larger head. Golden-light amber body. Grainy, caramel creamy nose with a mild citrus bite. very easy to drink but not stand out.

Hazy yellow with a slight brown tinge. Interesting hop aroma and malt twinge. An almost average APA.

Slightly foggy gold with a white head. Aroma is pale malt, light hoppiness. Taste is lots of pale malt, light hoppy background. Mediocre.
