Commercial Description:
This English Style Pale Ale is amber in color, with the malty fullness of caramel and toast, fruity overtones, and assertive hop flavor, enhanced by a sweet floral aroma. This style originates from versions brewed in Burton-on-Trent in the 1780's. Brewed with English specialty malts and Pacific Northwestern hops.

Quite pale in color with medium head. This beer just didn’t do it for me. Subtle hops, subtle malt, sublte alcohol. Everything about this one was just a bit to subtle. It’s not bad, but there’s just nothing good about it.

Colored a golden yellow with a lacy white head, the Pale Ale was quite attractive in the glass. Subtle bitter aroma. Hoppy and light flavor with a bit of a zing to it. Mild bitter leave. (submitted from the restaurant via my Treo)

Arrived in Sunnyvale on the 17th, and headed straight to Stoddards based on a recommendation from the kind peeps in the Ratebeer forum. This would have been my "desert" selection. This brew pours from the tap a light sparkling amber with a very thin white head. Something on the glass must have offended the lacing because it didn't show up for the party. The nose is faint citrus and spruce. The taste is mostly floral and toasty with a very british feel. Could use some dried fruit tones in the finish. The palate is medium to full, dry and lively. The finish feels chalky.

Tap. Medium golden color. Crisp malt and hop aroma. Slightly bitter and grainy. Good malt aftertaste.
