Disappearing head, dark orange body. Sweet toffee aroma, somewhat sticky and cloying. Sweet toffeish at first in the flavor with some bitterness knocking on the door. Not very interesting.

Pours a nice golden amber with a foamy white to off white head. Aroma is just great, mostly floral and piney notes very hoppy smelling. The taste backs up the scent quite well also. No bad tastes anywhere in this beer, just a good pale in an almost West Coast fashion.

I found this beer to be extremely dry. Very lightly hopped, okay feel. Decent beer.

Deep gold color with a small white head. Yeasty esters and sweet malt aromatics. Caramel and 2 row maltiness in the flavor, with some butteriness in the finish. Mouthfeel is light medium.

Bottle. Small, fizzy, off-white head atop a clear amber body. Heavy malt aroma of caramel and grain.Lightly to moderately hopped with notes of flowers and herbs. A hint of apple and wood. The flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic and lightly bitter. The finish was lightly to moderately bitter and lasting. Throughout the bottle, there was a slight tartness and hint of vinegar.

Very light. The pour was a coppery color. Has a bready..almost buttery taste to it. Not bad.

This Pale Ale does have a unique flavor, it doesn’t taste like most others that I’ve had but I didn’t enjoy the lingering aftertaste that it had.
