I liked this pale ale alot. It was very clean and crisp the hops and malts complemented each other well. Id like to try it when i wasnt as drunk to get a better read.

Bottle 12 oz. Clear amber color with a medium white head that diminished quickly. Medium complex hoppy aroma. Light to medium body. Medium flavor with a short dry finish. An average pale ale.

(Bottle) - Light amber colour. Discrete hop- and nuttyness on the nose. The taste is dry, with a slight caramel sweetness, and a discrete spicy finish.

Pours a light amber with no head. Smells of hops, floral and fruity. The taste is similar leaning towards a floral aftertaste. It is a little watery but there is a nice hop bite. Nice to have this on the 50th Anniversary.

Bottle. Nice caramel aroma with some discrete hops. Very dry flavor leading to a watery finish. A bit metallic in the aftertaste. Smooth body and pleasant carbonation. Easy-drinking and a bit boring.

Copper colour with a small creamy white head. Light roasted malty aroma with hints of fruit and caramel. Malty, grainy flavor with a light caramel sweetness and a dry hoppy finish.
