A pretty darn good pale ale. Has a strong hop bitterness backed up by some sweet citrus. I only payed six bucks for a six pack. Nothing incredibly special about this, but still a good brew.

Light orange-brown body with a white head and plenty of lacing. The nose has a light and flowery hop quality. Full hop flavor (fir trees) with a slight lemon and citrus finish. In addition, the finish also has a medium bitterness.

Very good APA. I've become bored with this style, but this had nice balance and lots of hops for the style.

Medium/lg frothy head, amber/gold clear body. Flowery grapefruit hops aroma, which smells good, but is too light. Flavor is thick with bitter hops. Kind of grapefruit rindy. Has a fruity sweetness with some butterscotch, but the bitterness prevails. Creamy texture... very good.

I discovered Tupper's beers last summer on vacation in Williamsburg. The hop pocket ale knocked my socks off when I sampled it in a downtown Williamsburg bar. I stack it up there with Sierra Nevada as one of the finest Pale Ales around. The pour is very heady, with a nice straw-brown color. The beer is extremely hoppy, but not overpowering, with a nice malty base, and slight citrus/chardonnay overtones. A rock-solid pale ale.

An amber colored ale with a light tan head that was a bit weak. Malty and hoppy, but not as hoppy as I was expecting. Very drinkable. Left a slightly bitter aftertaste. Overall, pretty yummy.

mmmm - so bitter, so fresh, a bit of pine but a lot of grapefruit, and blood. Just a fine beer.
