light amber, hazy. Medium white head fades quickly. Has a fruity aroma, like grapes. Kinda bitter, kinda soapy. Not really loving this. Mildly unpleasant aftertaste lingers. No thanks.

Pours a gold with barely any head. Smells sweeter than their Golden but similar - almost ideintical in taste. The taste is too light once again.

sweet malt aroma with a nice amount of (goldings?) hops, good malt base with well defined hops leading to a slight bitter finish

clear dark yellow, thin fine white head, nice lace, candy sweet malt aroma with light floral hops, lots of bitter hop flavor with a nice long bitter finish, enough dry malt to support the beginning to end bitterness,

Malty, lightly diacetyl aroma. Flavor is moderately hoppy, cidery, inhales butterscotch. Leans over towards a brown ale with fruit and herbal notes. Lightly sweet. Pretty crisp acidic finish. Medium body. Good bottle, standard PA brown-bronze, frothy head.

Metallic on the nose. Clear amber color, thin head. Subdued but good cherry and hop balance. Decent hop finish.

Unfortunately I didn’t like this at all...I was very disappointed. Obviously pours a deep red but very watery and flat, malty, one-dimensional. Not my favorite style.

Old Nick Pale Ale-on tap-pours a white head that laces and gold color. Aroma is medium malt-some sweet. Taste is medium malt-some sweet, medium hops-bitterness. Balanced. Nice easy drinking. OK carbonation. 3.7

Def some caramel. Dark copper. Clean with not much carbonation. A very easy not so typical pale ale to drink. I smelled this one as soon as a cracked open the cap.
