Captures the soul of beer. It has a maltiness that reminds you that beer is a product of the soil. Balance of malt and hops.

I really enjoyed this beer. Pours light brown with a tan head. Good balance between the malty sweetness and hoppy bitterness. This would be a good session beer.

Nice amber color pour with a thin tan head. Sweet nutty caramel malt aroma, along with a hint of fruit. Flavor is also sweet and malty, with a nice hoppy bittering finish. Medium mouthfeel. Pretty refreshing.

This copper ale poured with a thin beige head and a malty aroma. The flavor is very balanced with just the right amount of hop bitterness. However, the malt base is thin, even for a pale ale. Overall, a decent brew.

Bottle. Copper colored pour with a beige head. Nice fruity aroma with a malty sweetness. Nice flavors of plums and raisins up front surrounded by a malty sweetness, and finishes with a nice bitterness. Pretty good.

0.55 l bottle. Amber color with small peige head. Tart fruity and resiny hop aroma with notes of caramel and almonds. Resiny english hops are also in the foreground of flavor along with nutty and caramelly maltiness. Dry vinous bitterness. Pleasant firm pale ale.

This was interesting for a Pale Ale. It was far more chocolaty than any other Pale Ale I have had. I must admit... it is very tasty.
