wanting to try more can beer and never had baxter before so here we go. Slight haze on a deep yellow beer with one finger head. It s a pretty beery beer with grainy aroma and some toast. Just a little grass hop. Taste is mild with some hay and little bitter. Perhaps a good cookout beer but nothing to impressive.

@CBC-12oz can-white-yellow/gold. A-soft sweet grain, some spice hops. T-some spice hops, sweet grain-toast. Drying.

From the can, it was poured into a pint glass. It had a hazy golden, yet slightly orange body. The white head forms and fades within seconds. The lacing is ringy. The smell is grainy, slightly corn but sweet fruits and light hops. The taste has the grain again, however, I do notice some breadiness. Once again the fruit comes back with the hops. The palate has a light body with a high carbonation that is smooth. It finishes with a slight bitterness. Overall, this is good for me and the style

Can @ Chad’s house via trade with drsilverworm. Thanks! Pours a bit hazy hazy orange appearance with a foamy, off white head. Floral, orange blossom, somewhat zesty, nice aroma. A bit thin, a bit old, toasty malty, light caramel chewy, a little buttery flavor. Maybe a bit old.

Can shared by DrSilverworm. Pours a mostly clear golden color with a small white head. The aroma has pale malts, grains, mild citrus with a light herbal note. The flavor is pale malts, light citrus, grains, mild herbal notes with light earthy bitterness in the finish. Everything was just too mild.

Baxter Pamola XTRA Pale Ale has a very thick, frothy, off-white head, lots of thick lacing down the glass, a few streaming bubbles, and a hazy, orange-gold appearance, which becomes hazier when the bottom of the can is swished and poured in. The aroma is of grapefruit, sugary malts, and white bread. Taste is of grapefruit, sugar, malt, and bitterness. Mouthfeel is light and watery, and Pamola XTRA finishes crisp, clean, refreshing, and lager like in it’s somewhat flinty ending. Overall, this is excellent, and I strongly suggest giving it a try.

Can shared by Dr. Silverworm. Poured clear pale color with an average white frothy head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate citrus hop and malt aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Good drinkable brew.

Sampled at the 2012 Portland Brew Festival. Deliciously hoppy and a really good hop-malt balance. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

12oz can, thanks to parents. Canned 9/6/12. Nice lemon note to this, along with the satisfying fresh citrus hop flavor. Super smooth soft, lighter carbonation and dry texture, great mouthfeel. Great zestiness, light bitter. Thin white head leaves good lace. Mostly hazy flat yellow color. Definitely fresh-tasting.

Canned. Golden pour. Light head. Light hoppy smell. Some cereal grauns and babdaids. .
