3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
on tap-pours a thin white head and hazy gold color. Aroma is mild citrus hops, faint malt. Taste is citrus hops-some bitter/pine, faint malt. Mild carbonation.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Has a light hop aroma. Lots of bittering hops in the flavor and finish and that is the main detraction. Really needs some floral or citrus hops to complement it.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Full amber w. orangish tint and a head that rests nicely. Little hop aroma. Medium-bodied, with easy hop flavor of perhaps Cascades and rounded by Northern Brewer. An easy drinking I.P.A.
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bright orangey-amber colour. Not much aroma - maybe some toast. Sweetish body, with a hint of earth and wood. Not much bitterness. If it had a nice balance or some style I’d be okay with the lightness (see Harmon Pale) but this has little to offer me.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
This does not even taste like an IPA. Extremely dry and no flavor. Reminds me of when I was in kindergarten and they had us try sugar fee chocolate. I mean why even bother? Yuck! What a let down of a disasterous IPA!!
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
This is a weak IPA. Low hop aroma, pale appearance and a small pitcher. These are not good signs. This is an okay pub with a good selection of both their own beers and other breweries. Their others may be good but this is below average. "Imitation Pale Ale" may be more accurate.
