COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
We are part of Illinois Craft Brewers Guilds’ Replicale project. Every year at least a dozen breweries brew the same recipe. This year it is an American Pale Ale. Every participating brewery used a different single variety of hop. Crown Brewing used all Horizon hops in making this wonderful brew. It has a pronounced nose and palate of somewhat sweet orange hops. Enjoy while you can!

This one was a good APA~ aroma is grainy, lace around glass, orange, thinning, moderate carbonation, medium hops medium malts, citrus, semi sweet, well balanced, moderate mouthfeel. Excellent, crisp, semi lingering, no session but great for 1 or 2

Not bad. Good aroma and a nice hoppy sweet aroma. A good hops and malts balance with a nice bitter finish.

Tap: Slight coppery golden hue with a lasting frothy head and good lace. The aroma has notes of citric and herbal hops, a bit catty as well with a biscuity and crystal malt vapours. Some mint, dill and peppery esters on the phenolic nose. The taste starts with a quick slap of hop bitterness that quickly retreats leaving the pale and caramel malts to fight it out with the citric overtones. A tad muddled in my opinion and I am not too sure how fresh this is. The mouth feel is lively and crisp with some soapy tones. Blah, did not do much for me.
