Endurance Pale Ale (Tom Creans Ale)

poured a brownish-amber hue with a thin head that did not have much in the way of retention. Aroma was a little citrusy with a little caramel. Flavor had a mild hop bite too it nothing special to the sweet malts. Finish was smooth, an okay beer.

Bottle; poured a murky, dark gold color with a little bit of off white head. Aroma was close to being really good, just not quite; citrus, caramel and apples. Caramel flavor was pretty solid; grassy and floral hops. About average in flavor and hop presence. About average for the style overall.

Tap... Poured amber with a white head. Aroma of floral hops with a highly carbonated palate. Flavors of consistent hops that give way to some malty balance. Nice bitterness, and some sweet caramel. Straight forward and doesn’t hold back for a pale ale.

I thought this was one of the better Pale Ale’s I’ve tried. Pours a bright copper like color. Moderate head and lacing. Nice hoppy aroma with some sugary sweet notes in there. A nice tasting Pale Ale that can be suitable for just relaxing with one or two, or if you feel like drinking a bunch. Slightly sweet with a nice crisp hoppy bite, especially for a Pale Ale. Actually I think this has got more flavor than some weaker IPA’s I’ve had and was pleasantly surprised how well this tasted.

Bottle. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is citrus hops and sweet caramel malt. Medium body. Flavor is also citrus and caramel with some floral and other fruity notes. A very decent and drinkable beer.
