Style: American Pale Ale

Serve in Lager glass, Shaker

355ml bottle pours a pale golden color with a 2 finger white head that settles quite quickly leaving some spotted lacing on the glass. Aroma is light toasted malts and floral hops. Taste is light caramel sweetness with some toasted malts and a moderate hop bitterness. Light to medium body and light carbonation. A pretty enjoyable pale ale that I sampled while on vacation in Oregon.

Pours orange with half finger white head. Smell is clean, crisp, and hoppy. Taste is smooth and floral, a bit on the sweet side (almost like a lager). Decent.

Draft @ Bridgeport. Pours a light golden clear body with a fizzy white head that quickly disappears. Light hoppy nose and a some light roasted malts. Abv certainly dictates a session beer. And while not super great, I could easily sip this by the pool all day.

12oz bottle. Pours hazy amber with thin head. Smells slightly malty and hoppy - caramel and grassy notes. Thin bodied, with a strong sweet flavor up front and a bitter bite at the end with an odd, soapy aftertaste. I’ve had this before and it was better, but this is borderline drainpour. The flavors do not blend at all, and light carbonation leaves off flavors to linger on the tongue.

Bottle. A crisp drinking American Pale Ale. Body is a bit thin. Light hops with tangy citrus flavors. Finishes with a mild bitterness.

Bottle. Pours an old penny copper with small white head. Light malts and floral hops in the aroma. Flavor is powered by lemony hops and malts, with almost no bitterness. Goes down crisp, clean, and refreshing, but not very complex. Very drinkable, but nothing special.

Has an underwhelming amount of hops in it, which is just fine with me. Nothing special, and nothing awful. Overall a good beer.
