Tröegs Pale Ale

Brewed by Tröegs Brewing Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania USA

It has a dark golden appearance. It is light in both aroma and flavor, which is why I believe it’s commercial description says crisp flavored. I love Cascade hops because they are so smooth.

Hazy orange pour with a grapefruit nose. Flat and watery on palate. Looked the part, didn’t taste the part.

The aroma and pour are decent enough but do not really suggest the level of excellence the flavor and palate display. The crystal malt rounds out the pale malt, just as the Liberty hops add floral notes to the citric Cascades. All these ingredients blend and balance very well indeed.

Pours a golden brown with a thick and bubbly head with good retention and lacing. Smells of earthy hops and a hint of sweetness. Tastes right on with the smell. Fairly balanced on both ends. Leaves a pleasant aftertaste. Medium bodied and med/high carbonation. Would absolutely buy again, very easy to drink.

Had a cup from the taps at PS1. Poured a rich orange with a fine layer of pure white head. Smelled of bitter hops. Flavor was mostly hoppy but with minor malt character. Some pine and citrus notes. Had a nice, crisp finish. Very good beer.

12oz bottle. Bright orange pour with a layer of white cream. Aroma is west coast bitter hops. Flavor is bright white. Bitter hops but a good amount of sweet malt balances the profile. Standard APA.

Poured from a 12oz. bottle into a pint glass. The color is a light gold, clear, with a foamy white head. The smell is fruity. Citrus flavors orange, lemon and grapefruit. The taste is hoppy, some malt flavor. Some citrus overtones and a nice light feel. This beer is quite tasteful. Is really drinkable and crisp. A great beer from PA.

Poured a deep golden color. Crisp, grassy, piney hop flavor. A touch of sweetness in the malt. Great session beer and good introduction to craft beer for those folks who are used to drinking cheap macros.
