Tröegs Pale Ale

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

A straightforward, crisp, clean, tasty APA - not over the top with the hops like some are, which is good, since many brewers pretty much just make an IPA and call it a pale ale - smooth, clean crystal malt sweetness, with just enough of a hop bite to balance it out - lightly floral and citric in the finish - lively carbonation makes a for a refreshing mouthfeel - overall, quite nice.

Found this one bottled in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. Hazy, light orange pour with a lacy, white head, crisp, citrusy hops and grapefruit nose, excellent citrusy notes throughout, especially grapefruit, lime, and a touch of clover honey. Tight, dry finish. Excellent.

Pours blonde with upfront hop aroma, which my guess is dry-hopped with cascade. Body is slightly lean and finish is quite hoppy, as if brewers were packing in as much hop presence as possible in a lean pale.

Amber hue, light hoppy smell hint of citrus and pine, kind of light and watery, decent balance, not much to it but in the lack of complexity it is drinkable and refreshing. Aight

bottle poured a golden in color with a ring of white head on the glass. aroma has sweet malt, citrus, grass, and some light bitterness. light mouth feel with crisp carbonation. flavor has sweet pale malt, bitter citrus hops, some minerals, and finishes with nice lingering bitterness. solid tasty pale.

On tap at RnH (Midtown, NYC): Wow I wasn’t expecting the tartness that comes with this beer. Not spectacular. Light hops mask some sweet citrus notes in there. Not bad, but easily forgetable. #042 on 01072009, DG.

Bought at Vintage Estates in Ohio, label on bottle is different from the label shown here on RateBeer, has a very clear copper pour with a little amber and orange thrown in, a white one to two finger high head appears and collapses to a thin cover and ring, leaves some lacing on the glass, nice citrus-floral cascade hops with malt candy and honey sweetness on the nose, and toasted malt fragrances, flavor of toasted and faint caramel malts, some hop pine and bitterness on the palate, medium mouth feel, nice Pale Ale.

bottle at the deli for a meet the brewers event in state college pa. This beer pours brownish amber color zero head. The smell is of most pale ales citrus and lightly hopped. The taste is ok since I’m a hop head pale ales just don’t excite me I need more hops. It wasnt bad it was a good beer.
