Commercial Description:
This beer is a “classic” American pale ale; very clean and balanced, with generous additions of cascade hops from the northwest. Unlike our other ales, the purgatory is “dry hopped” two days after the initial brew to obtain a crisp, yet floral flavor and aroma.

American Beer #500. Hazy yellow color with little head. Dry hoppy aroma. Citrus and hops in the taste, but well balanced with some malt. Not a bad pale.

Looks like I’ll be the one to put this on the map. Translucent orange with no head. Aroma is sweet honey and lemon grass underlined with smells from a laundromat. Watery first impression. Watery finish. Hops pop-up in the middle and then are washed away. Other flavors consist of resin, spring rain and mowed grass. Boo.

Soft but distinct hop aroma,hop dominated taste with a little citrus and malt in the aftertaste, finished nicely.Very nice pale ale, perhaps the best I,ve tasted from a Wisconsin brewer, could use just a touch more malt to be up there with the big guys.

Cloudy Yellow Coloring. Citrus, Hops and Enough Malt to Keep it From Being too Overpowering. Not a Bad Brew, but Was Hoping for More Given the Name.

Hazy orange-tan body, soapy white head. Flavor is low on sweetness, but pretty high on biting, resinous hops. Bitter grapefruit rind and some brown sugar finishing with those spicy, stemmy hops. Sweet grapefruit aroma.
