COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
ACME CALIFORNIA PALE ALE is a smooth, clean ale with faint citrus and honey flavor notes and a dry finish. It is brewed with Yakima Valley hops and the finest American two-row malt, but with a measure of British specialty malt for depth. This easy drinking pale ale is a "session beer" which will be welcomed at neighborhood taverns and restaurants (and refrigerators) throughout the west.

Ungstrup (26236) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - JUN 27, 2006
A hazy orange beer with a dense orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of oranges, while the flavor is sweet malty with light notes of hops and fruit.

Papsoe (25131) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JUN 21, 2006
(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a hazy, pilsener golden with a small, off-white head. Rather fresh and fruity aroma. Quite light-bodied, almost watery. Light notes of caramel and aroma hops leaving almost no bitterness. Drinkable indeed - as an alternative to Pale Lager. 210606
