Commercial Description:
This handcrafted American Pale Ale is brewed in small batches using high quality American two row, choice British crystal malts, select hops and deep-well ground water from the Evangeline Aquifer. Non-filtered, never pasteurized this ale is packaged directly into cans to ensure maximum freshness for your enjoyment. This full-flavored amber ale is sure to satisfy. "Clarity is overrated."

Pours deep amber, and fairly dark for an APA. Creamy, off-white head with loads of retention. Sweet smells of malt are apparent, but it is the hop bouquet that is most assertive. The flavor is equally hop forward; herbal but rounded out with adequate maltiness. Medium body with a long hoppy finish.

Canned. Thx to Flippy. Aroma of floral hops. Clear, amber-red coloured with a nice off-white head. Taste is bitter, floral hoppy with some pine, slightly malty. Finishes dry. Light bodied. Well brewed session beer.

The beer pours a clear brown amber with an off white head made up of large bubbles. The head doesn’t hang around long. The nose has a clear aroma of sweet floral hops. The taste is a mix of alcohol, light malts and hops. The finish is clean a short lived. A fair first time showing for a new Texas brewery.
