Commercial Description:
A Western, American-style pale ale. Drier, hoppier, turbocharged version of this house favorite. Hops from the Pacific Northwest provide the distinctive citrus flavor. A malty finish balances this incredible, quaffable ale.

Also known as Canseco Pale Ale when dry hopped with a "hops infuser" placed in the lines.

Hoppy, citrus aroma with a bitter hopped flavor. This beer pours amber with a white head. Another solid offering from the local inn.

on tap-pours a retaining off white head and gold/amber color. Aroma is very mild citrus, some musty/cardboard. Taste is dry citrus hops-grapefruit, secondary medium malt. Finish is some bitter. (also on cask-more piney/earthy)

Draft at brewpub. pours orange amber with an off white head. Initial flavor of caramelized malt that transitions to a mild grapefruit bitterness. Short, semi dry bitter finish. Not outstanding, but good.

Draft. Nice cloudy pale golden body with thin head. Aroma is light citrus, malt. Flavor has a very heavy malty body, light hops and lemon noted. Very drinkable with a nice mouthfeel.

Thin head with great carbonation. Toasted malt aroma with some hops presence. Little bit of cereal also. Bright golden orange in color. Light bodied. Malty and fruity up front. Good hops presence in the flavor with lots of citrus and some floral notes. Sharp bitterness with some spics and herbal flavors too. A bit of pear. Dry and pretty bitter at the finish with some lingering fruit. A pretty good, everyday drinking pale ale.
