12oz bottle. Your basic pale ale here. Very drinkable, nice caramel taste with just enough hops. Very well done though nothing out of the ordinary for this style.

Dec 23, 2009 This was a true APA. At first, I thought that it was supposed to be an IPA - I didn’t read the label all that closely - upon drinking, I thought that it was definitely PA, and not so strong. Ruddy, cedar red, the label is a bit lame - I know what Smutty is going for on their retro, throwback, 60’s nostalgia, but it isn’t quite coming off. Lots of herbal, vegetable notes. Moderate hopping, mostly dry, a little woody. Very drinkable. Medium body, nutty/toasty/woody caste.

Dec 20, 2009 Wonderful Pale. Great bitter taste of hops. So great. Wonderful color almost of an IPA. I love this brew.

Dec 20, 2009 This is a good pale. Bitter ut not ove the top. Citrus flavors and a hoppy profile. Clean and refreshing with nice flavors.

Dec 7, 2009 Fresh baked bread anyone indeed. Decent brew. Must admit I prefer the Sierra version more and its cheaper, still very drinkable.

Dec 4, 2009 12oz bottle from ABC Liquor. Copper pour with thin off-white head and a light sheet of sudsy stick. Citrus hop aroma with a yeasty quality to it. Grassy hop bitterness in the taste balanced by an earthy malt sweetness. Slightly watery palate and low carbonation keep the focus on the bitterness through to the dry finish.

Nov 29, 2009 Hoppy and citrusy more like an IPA to me which is probably why I like it so much. Although maybe all english pale ale’s are similar. Very refreshing and tasty

Nov 28, 2009 (12 ounce bottle) Smuttynose has a good looking bottle. Pours a dense but small head, has great head retention though which leads to a nice lacing. Hoppy aroma with notes of pepper and citrus. Crisp hoppy taste. Carbonation is there though not at all overpowering, light crisp finish. 5% ABV makes this a good session beer.

Nov 23, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a hazy copper color with a fine head of white foam that leaves a good amount of lace. Grain and malty sweetness and a touch of floral hops make the aroma. Great flavor balance goes from a citrus hop flavor to full sweet maltiness and finishes with a drying hop bitterness. A decent Smutty.
