Pours damn near flat, thin whispy head,some large bubbles and some stringy lace just clinging for life. Bright amber almost brown color. Pale ale? Nose of caramel malts and not much else. Light bodied, lifeless. Medium sweet malts, caramelly, lightly bready, sorta nutty. Lightly sweet finish, nutty malty. Nice package, not so nice beer especially @ $6.50 a can bottle. You guys have any QC/RD? This is not a pale Ale. Gotta be a mistake. More of an Amber to me. Meh.

Bottle shared with Linh. Pours a plain amber body with white lacing. Aroma is light sweet corn, grain, and sweet, fruity malts. Mouthfeel is thin and carbonated with notes of fruity malts, a light graininess and nothing else. Not overly offensive, but nothing I would ever prefer to drink personally.

I tried my best to get any aroma out of this beer to no avail. The most I could get was a bit of malt. The flavor is not bad, slightly bitter with a dry feel. A little thin going down. Just a bland beer.

Tap @ brewery. Pours brown with thick, frothy off-white head; good retention and lacing. Aroma is caramel and sweet malts, fruit, toffee, and some earthy notes. Flavor is malt forward, average hops, and light esters; sweet finish. Medium body, carbonation, and warmth.

From a bottle poured an amber color with a small amount of head. Light hoppy flavor with a quick finish.

This poured dark yellow color with a white head. Aroma was a pale malt, light caramel, and lght grassy and ctrus hos, Flavor was light hops and caramel. eh.

On tap @ the Brewery-Brown pour w/a moderate white head. Some hop aroma. Had a bit of a hop bite, some malt, some caramel....not a whole lot going on here. Pretty boring actually, and as others have said, this is definatly not an APA, more like a brown ale or Amber.

Red-brown, off white cover. Aroma is caramel, grassy. Taste is candy, caramel, grassy.

Not an APA but rather pleasant. +++ Sampled from a 22 oz can this beer poured a medium brown color with orange highlights and a medium sized foamy tan head that faded and left some lacing. The aroma was sweet caramel, molasses, somewhat vegetal malts and moderate notes of cherry, fruity hops and cola. The flavor was bitter and tart with cherry, molasses, caramel, pineapple, grapefruit, nut bread and cola elements blending nicely. Medium finish. Medium body. Interesting.

Brown with quick-fading tan head. Aroma is worty and unfermented. Taste is the same, with weak hop taste. Not sure what this is, but it isn’t an APA.

Draft @ Max’s Taphouse, Baltimore, MD. Pours a clear amber color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity malty weak hoppy aroma. Fruity malty caramel flavor with hoppy hints. Has a fruity malty weak hoppy finish.
