District ChopHouse Pale Ale

Finally back on draft! Pours a clear light amber color with a thin head. Citrusy aroma, with a hint of hops. Light bitterness, along with some dry hops. Decent pale ale. Much lighter than their IPA.

Nicely hopped, a constructive balance of fruits, though the flavor has something odd, a bitterness that reminids me of soap, something astringent. Moderately substantial body, off-set by the somewhat chalky finish. Light copper/orange with white head. (on tap at brewpub)

Off-white head atop a clear straw body, nice lacing. Aroma is fairly mild -- honey, light grapefruit/herbal. Taste is medium sweet, honey, herbal/grapefruit, some butte, light lemon. Nice grapefruit burp, moderately bitter. Light-medium body, nice crispness. Very drinkable.
