At NorCal Brewers Guild Festival at Raley Field. Aroma of hop and malt. Hazy amber gold color with a little head that left lacing. Starts with a Thompson Seedless grape flavor! Ends on a balance of fruity hop and malt. Quite different. Very enjoyable.

~3.5 Pours a cloudy golden color with white head. ~Sweet, clean hop scent. Similar to Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. ~Light crisp hop taste. Again reminds me of Sierra Nevada. ~Medium to light feel, clean crisp finish. ~Very similar to Sierra Nevada IMO. I do like this one a tad better though.

Hoppy mildly biscuity nose. Nice mouthfeel with good bittering. Nice clean finish.

A very fresh, energetic offering in the swollen pale ale ranks of California brewers. Highly drinkable, with a top-notch balance of hops and malt. Yum. The best Elk Grove beer I've had.
