COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our light copper pale ale has a delicate malt attribute balanced by an aggressive hop flavor and aroma. Many American micros have developed their own version of this classic English style beer. Our brewers anticipate that you will enjoy their variation.

Butters (3013) - Richmond, USA - JUL 29, 2009
Bottle pours a clear ambner with fair ring off off white head. Nose and flavor of fruity citrusy hops and some caramel backbone. More impressed than I expected to be, but nothing special.

DeputyAndy (465) - Ambler, Pennsylvania, USA - DEC 30, 2011
Bottle. Pours a nice copper color with a lasting head. Nice pine-ish aroma. Taste is smooth and caramel. Pretty balanced. Nice sipping beer. lot’s of other APAs are very aggressively hopped, but this is very sessionable.

PhatB420 (368) - Pittsfield, Massachusetts, USA - NOV 23, 2011
Flat pour from a 12oz bottle into a pint. Head fizzles up to a stern showing at first, only to dissapate to light bubbles and a faint ring around the glass. Color is bright copper orange and mellow brown. Taste is a tad hoppy which puts this brew behind a solid pale ale, some pine and ceader. Quite an average beer here. Nothing super satisfying but it still is drinkable. Relaxing yes, superior no. And thats just the way it is.

A good pale ale. Nothing great; just a good solid beer that is tasty, has a great finish and easy to drink. Mine was with a pizza at the ABC Brewery in Gettysburg. Try it.

Cakes (246) - New Bloomfield, Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 9, 2011
6 oz sampler on tap at their Camp Hill brew pub. Pours a medium copper amber color from a 12oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is caramel, toast and lightly hoppy. A light to medium bodied American Pale Ale. The malts are caramel, toffee and a touch bready. The hops are a little mild for an APA, a touch grapefruity and citrusy too.

beerbill (2935) - Laurel, New York, USA - JUN 23, 2011
12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy golden amber with a thin-moderate off-white head that lasted through the first two sips and left light lace. Pleasant aroma of orange with a bit of malt present as well. The flavor is mild malt followed by some mild hops bitterness with just a bit of citrus. A slightly earthy flavor rises and quickly falls towards the finish as well.
