Pours cloudy yellow. Tall white head, lasts a while. Aroma is corn, yeast, hops, light and ephemeral. Flavor is same with flowery citrus, crisp bittery hop finish that lingers nicely. Some carbonation contributes to the fresh, crisp flavor. Very tasty. A very drinkable beer, although I couldn't identify the oats specifically. An excellent Spring beer that will wisk you into the lighter ale season. Still packs an alcohol whallop!

i smelled the oats on this one as soon as i opend it.poured it into a pint and it revealed a honey colored body with a big lumpy head.the head soon evaporated a bit and began to level out.i was a bit surprised by the taste.not as much flavor or as i expected.then again,i guess the "pale oat" name should have told me that.anyway,not bad but not great.

Are we eating oatmeal? This brew is great. It has so much character, even with the high alcohol content. This, like most other lagunitas brews is inspiring.

Nice smooth, oat/wheat aroma. 1/2 inch white head that is lasting. Pours a light gold color. Very slight alcohol that is noticable, really somewhat normal. Little hop bite, nice balance.
