Pours a cream, two-fingered head, fades quickly and leaves some lace. Medium carbonation and light-medium bodied. Clear amber color. Citrusy nose. Starts with a mix of hops and malt, faint sweetness in the background and finishes without an overpowering amount of hops like some pales can be. 83¢ for a 12oz bottle from Cumberland Convenience Greenland, NH.

From a 22 oz bottle this poured a nice clear copper to amber color and produced a big foamy head teh left moderate lacing in the glass. The is a malty nose, with at touch of caramel, citrus and pine hops. Mouthfeel is very smooth with very little carbonation. Flavors are malts and hops, with a little citrus. Finish is slightly sour, which adds an interesting touch. A pale ales go, this is a pretty good one.

Bottle. Pours a medium gold with 2 finger fluffy white head and clumpy spotty lacing. Nose is malt, bread and a touch of citrus hops. Taste pretty much follows suit with the aroma. There’s a bit more citrus hop in the finish than the nose lets on. Medium mouth feel. Not terrible.

22oz bottle-An amber body with a nice white head and an aroma of malt and slight hops. Taste fairly weak in the hops but it is an English Pale Ale. Not very impressed.
