pale yellow. fizzy. nothing spectacular. should just say beer on the label

Bottle (12oz). Via trade with mreusch. Quite cloudy and bubbly in the glass, amber-hued and a decent tightly foamy lasting smallish off-white head. Good sweet and floral aroma, tangerine, peach and roses, a bit herbal. The taste is also quite floral, perhaps a touch soapy, astringent cereal grain takes over for the fruitiness of the nose. Average chewy body, light carbonation for all those bubbles, a little dry in the squeaky finish. A solid APA, no complaints from me!

Bottle at MCI Airport. Amber orange big foamy off white head, some lacing. Some sweet citrusy aroma and a light hoppy floral citrus flavor. Body is light but fills the mouth, a nice palate. Solid basic pale. Good drinkability.

UPDATED: APR 26, 2008 C-Hop dominate this pale ale. There are stronger APA’s in the market, Boulevard’s Pale Ale had an upfront citrus aroma and flavor. Very happy to ’discover’ at the Kitchen Pass in Parsons, KS where I thought the only choices would be budcoorsmiller.

Pours an amber gold with about a half inch of white head. Smells strongly of hops with some hints of cirus. Taste fades from medium hop bitterness to a light malt flavor. Medium body with a nice level of carbonation and clean finish. This is a great Pale Ale.

Part of a variety pack, for a party. It fit my budget and pleased my guests. A decent representative of its style. Good hops.

On tap, good hops taste not much of an aroma. I was kind of disappointed nothing spectacular. Would not buy again

Very average pale ale IMO. Poured a light yellow color with a quickly dissappearing white head. Smelled kind of skunky to me. Tasted lightly of citrus and lager. Finished very clean. Reminded me way too much of a big-three brew. Wouldn’t go out of my way to drink again.
