(12oz bottle) Minimal white head atop clear amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, peach/orange, light bread. Taste is medium sweet, orange/grapefruit, some peach, bread/caramel. Light-medium body, some acidic crispness, low carbonation.

(12oz bottle) Pours a clear golden body with a medium creamy white head. Aroma of perfume, passion fruit, lemon, and orange. Flavor of hops (floral, grassy) and light crystal malt with a dry mouthfeel and bitter finish.

Almost clear light amber (orange) in color with a small but lasting white head. In the nose, I get some moderate citrus, as well as some caramelized malts with some lightly nutty malts. Taste is relatively light bodied, with a moderate citrus and floral hop character. Some crystal malts- molasses, and lightly nutty malt body. Bitterness is moderate, lingers a bit and becomes a bit piney in the finish. This is a pretty solid easy drinking APA.

12oz bottle-pours an off white head and gold color. Aroma is sweet pine/citrus hops. Taste is somewhat bitter pine/herbal hops, some light malt. Thanks jwc215&dmac for picking this out.

Easy drinking pale. Good solid flavors with a nice balance of sweetness and light hops. Pine, citrus and bread.

Amber pour with a fluffy short lasting head. Aroma of hops with some yeast notes. Flavor is malt sweetness followed by piney hops. Pretty thin. Pretty average.

12 oz bottle purcahsed at Canal’s Hainesport. I was actually going to bitch about where does this beer state "Two Brothers Pale Ale" and about it being brewed at Southern Tier and then I read the bottom of the six pack holder. For those of you who didn’t buy this in a 6-pack it would seem that Phin from Southern Tier married Pete from Ellicottville Brewings sister-in-law or cousin, perhaps it was his landlords newspaper delivery boys babysitter, ah who the F cares. This beer poured a very thin bodied rust shaded amber with a small foamy whiteish head. Aroma is on the sweet side with notes of apricot, honey grahm crackers and floral hops. Thin bodied with tingly average carbonation. Flavor of grahm crackers, honey, grains, slight hops. Okay this is sessionable and nice but it’s still ust an APA.

Bottle. Pours a nectar of amber with orange hues and a white head. Rich pine and citrus very appealing with a floral hop aroma. Hints of blossom honey and light caramel malt, drinks incredible served cold. Wow one hell of a APA! Dam good!

9/23/08 - Draft Sample at Brewpub. Pours orange/amber with white head., decent lacing for a sample. Nose is malty wit ha slight citrus nose. Taste is big caramel malt with citrus and pine hops. Moderately bitter and solid mouth feel. Good standard.

Pours a dark amber/gold with a thin off white head. Aromas of lightly sweet pine/resiny hops, caramel, and fruit. Pretty hoppy in flavor with a bitter aftertaste. Also has a slight malt backbone that gives it a little sweet taste. Still tastes and feels like it is missing something. Overall I enjoyed this one.
