nice clear copper color with a whispy white head, sweet grapefruit aroma, lots of good hop flavor with just enough sweetness to keep it honest, grapefruit shows up late followed by a lingering bitter finish

Sampler at the Four Queens Casino Brewpub - Also called "Pale Rider" at the Brewpub. Poured a orangish-amber in color wth a whitish head. Aroma was heavy of citrus-pine hops with a hint of malty sweetness. Flavor was pretty hoppy... citrus-pine and cascade grassiness too... the way I like it. Very good.

Orange, with a thin white head. Big citrus hop aroma. Nice hop flavor, too - Kind of rough, fresh resiny hops. Decent smoky malt in the background. Remains nicely hopped to the finish.

I had this playing cards in Vegas and it was called Pale Rider as well. Nice pale ale but not overly hoppy and more of a citrus flavour.

My beer was also called Pale Rider, available at the Cigar Bar in the Four Queens. West Coast style pale ale with heavy citrus flavor. Flavor has cascade hops written all over it.
