Grainy, grassy nose with mild diacetyl. Soapy and astringent palate with mild hopping. Crappy astringent finish.

Low point on my beer tour of West Coast USA. Why this is called a pale ale I do not know. Golden coloured. Nose is bit of hops, bit of pine. Taste is weak, watery. If anything like a Euro lager or Budweiser.
