Commercial Description:
The classic English style of Chamberlain Pale Ale is enhanced by its golden copper hue and creamy white head. It is dry and crisp with an aromatic hoppy finish. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain: Civil war hero. Medal of honor winner. Maine governor. President of Bowdoin College. The Chamberlain Pale Ale was created by the Shipyard Brewing Company to commemorate the extraodinary life of "the man from Maine."

Bottle. Pours golden with medium white head. Aroma is sweet, slightly hoppy. Flavor is overly sweet, slightly malty, bit thin in finish. Hmmm, tastes like all of the other shipyard beers I’ve had.

Me like. Not the overpowering hopfest that runs around the country (not that there is anything wrong with that), but a restrained hoppiness that one would expect from an english pale. Well done.

Bu au Mondial de la Bière 06. Dorée foncée, pas de collet. Arome d’houblon plaisant. Goût de malte simple mais bon.

Good sized head. Bright white in color. Lingers for a while with light carbonation. Nice aroma vanilla, candy, little hops and some light biscuit malts. Color is a bright dark orange. Crisp and slightly dry flavor with more vanilla and soft malts up front then the hops take over. Nice bitterness appears and lasts through the finish. Little more biscuits and a touch of sweetness for balance. Nice lingering bitterness at the finish and again a little dry. This is a very good and moderately hopped pale ale.

A deep bronze with a dissipating head. Moderate carbonation. The aroma reminds me of maple leafs and honey. Crisp bitterness follows a slightly sticky honey and carmael. Slightly roasted malt. A fine blend of the English meets the coast of Maine.

Has a very crisp aroma that is very springy and floralish. Is a light amber, very clear and sparkly appearance. Has a light white head, looks very appealing in glass. Very good flavor that is not too bitter or sweet. A perfect summer beer.

Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours copper with a white head. Aroma hops and caramel malt. Flavor was bitter, sweet, and caramel. Not bad picked up while in Vermont visiting micro breweries.

Pours out yellow in color with a sticky white head on it. Hoppy, even slightly soapy smell to it. Very drinkable, almost able to gulp it. Not bad in all, something to drink during the summer perhaps.
