3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: DEC 12, 2009 This should probably be spelled "Fremont". Nice hoppy, floral aroma. Slightly dark copper color with a medium head. More bitter and hoppy than a typical pale. Nice. There is a slightly off flavor, hard to identify, but a bit metallic. Still, very drinkable. A promising start for this brewery.
...Having had this a few more times over the months, I have to revise my 3.0 rating. The diacetyl flavor has been corrected and this is a very good, hoppy pale ale.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Pours a dark honey amber with light off-white head. Aroma is of floral hops. Flavor of some sweet malts, and is fairly smooth with a tinge of bitterness, but not as bitter as most pales and IPAs. It’s good in the bottle, but even better on tap or in a growler straight from the source at the Brewery in Fremont!
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Can poured into snifter. Med amber color, 1 finger white head, leaves irreg lacing. Hop, citrus aroma. Crisp hint of roasty grains meets citrus and is immediately followed by hop bitterness that dominates the finish. Refreshing NW pale ale.

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Poured from a 22oz bottle in to a pint glass. Brass color, slightly hazy with a 1 finger off white head. Aroma is citrusy, piney hops. Flavors of grapefruit, orange, a medium malt backbone and piney hops. Medium body, leaves mouth slightly dry, medium carbonation and a hoppy finish. Overall a solid pale ale. Not world class but definitely worthy of my glass.

Solid pale beer all around, great hop aroma and not too chewy. The beer looked delicious clinging to the sides as it disappeared into my belly. Probably helped that I paired it with fish and chips literally a block away from the brewery.
