COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This amber colored beer is our interpretation of the classic British Pale Ale originating in Burton-Upon-Trent, England. Three varieties of American grown hops create a pleasing bitterness, aroma and lingering hop taste. Our Pale Ale’s medium-light body and clean taste make it an excellent accompaniment to a fine meal or a satisfying drink all by itself.

Golden yellow color with a very small white head. Very light beer with a slight hop taste but not very strong.

Not too bad. Little watery. Yellowy straw color. Thin and on the watery side flavor, but pretty easy to drink.

Poured a nice pale yellow with only a small head. Some malty flavor but not overaly complex. A nice beer with a meal.

Nice looking amber pale ale, weak in the aroma as well as the hops. Good drinking and smooth. Definately not a powerhose.

Yum. The flavor isn't as intense as most pale ales, but it's a trade-off, as it's also much easier on the palate.

Tap at brewery. I should preface this by saying I’m not a fan of pale ale’s. I find them boring and often just watery piss. For a pale ale though, this was good. There was some hoppy character to it, I noticed a hint of spice in it, but I couldn’t put my finger on it. Nonetheless, a good offering from this little known brewery.

A solid daily pale ale, great for hot days or with meals. Slightly malty and hoppy, decently balanced. Not terribly bitter. Sweet aftertaste. Goes down smooth when cold. Light and not filling.

12 oz bottle: Pours a surprising rich amber color with a creamy head and nice lacing. A malty and hoppy aroma with hints of caramel and brown sugar. Somewhat of a watered down pale ale taste. However, there is a subtle hoppy finish. Not the best pale ale I’ve had, but a good one nonetheless.

A good "drinking" beer: it goes down clean and crisp. The aroma is mild, and there is little if any aftertaste. For the price, there isn’t much out there that can top this.

Good beer, however nothing great about it. Pours golden with little head. Good pale taste. Good crisp finish.
