3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Appearance: Dispensed a dark amber-hued body featuring good clarity and an off-white head.
Smell: Copper Creek’s APA smells of pale malts, toasted barley, floral, citrusy hops, and a flickering of crystal malt.
Taste: Opens with pale malts, lightly toasty accents, and a small hint of sweet caramel. Faint fruitiness. Hops give florals and a taste of white grapefruit. Moderate bitterness. The taste as well as the body thins out on the back half. Drying, bitterish finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium-light carbonation.
Drinkability: Simple but solid and ultimately an OK American Pale Ale.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours a light copper color with a slight orange tint. Aroma and taste of watered down hops with minimal aftertaste. A light tasting beer that was refreshing but lacked any complexity.

Draft. Orange amber with a small white head. Hoppy nose, grapefruity. Flavor is soft but sharp hops over malt. Very citrusy. Not bad at all.
