Commercial Description:
Is a malty amber ale. It is medium gravity with a malty middle, beautiful color and sparkling clear. Angel City Ale utilizes Yakima Golding hops in three kettle additions to give it a subdued yet complex bittering which provides a thirst quenching dry finish.

Pours very bright copper with a small off-white head. Slight citrussy aroma, at first it seems like a bit of a Uk-American hop mix, but eventually I got some interesting floral notes. There is a bit of light chocolate and toffee, dried apricots and the likes. Medium body, well balanced and very smooth. Balanced, simple caramel malt, flowery hop flavours and a bit of saltiness. Clean slightly sweet finish. Not bad.

12oz bottle from BevMo! One of the better Angel City beers. An aroma of malt and caramel on an amber body with a head that dissipates quickly. Toasted malt and some amount of bitterness.

I found this beer to be nothing special and if anything down right bad. My reason for buying was to support a local brew. I like amber style beers but i think that it was a little to bitter for this gal’s taste.

wasn’t a big fan of this ale. had it on tap at a local restaurant and was expecting much more than i got. reddish tan color with a little white head that disappeared quickly. the flavor was quite bland. malty but not that savory. aroma was quite bland, too.
