I really like this beer. The commercial description is spot on: a pale ale with a malty middle and nice hop finish. Eminently drinkable. Would be excellent with food.

Originally reviewed: 11/16/08. Pours a cloudy deep gold with a monstrous foamy white head. This retains well with excellent lacing rings.
Smells citrusy and of deep hop tones. Some floral.
Taste is a wonderful deep hoppy bitterness with some definitive grapefruit. Nice crisp mouthfeel with medium to high carbonation.
I like this brew. Nice representation of the EPA. Recommend.

Pours a clear, light orange with a good-sized head. Floral hops with a bit of spice and some caramel malt character on the nose as well. Biscuit and toffee. Nice medium-high carbonation. Grassy, bitter finish. A very nice pale, and I’m not the biggest fan of most.

Excellent version of an ENGLISH Pale Ale. Very sweet malty front with a slightly bitter hop finish. Many reviews on this beer are people thinking that it is an American Pale Ale. It’s not. I will always keep coming back to this one.

Flavor: Bitter but still smooth citrus hops, sweet malt, caramel, fruitiness, apricot. Dry finish. Good balance between hops and malt. Very drinkable. This is a very good Pale Ale.

Bottle from Brouwerij De Molen. Pours an orange beer with a good white head. Impressive aroma with lots of fruits like grapefruit and citrus. Reminded me of a good American IPA. Recognized this also in the taste. Tasted like a double IPA. Taste starts of with sweet notes and is followed by a lot of bitterness. Lots of hops. Great aftertaste wich I can’t place. Really great brew.

Orange golden body and very nice off white head. White bread base, clean yeast and modest but modern lemony hop profile. Solid butter base, really nice and summery. Good stuff. (On my Florida trip)

English Style pale ale they say. Very good interpretation. Golden color, not much head, creamy mouthfeel, aromas of toasted grain and a faint earth hop note, flavor is extremely balanced, just a little hop fade on the finish. A very good alternative to the hoppier American pale ale.

Pours a golden amber with a medium white head. Aroma and Taste of biscuit malt, yeast, some fruity citrus notes and some floral citrus hops. Palate is a medium body slightly crisp mouth feel and some good carbonation. Finish is sweet biscuit malt, yeast, fruity citrus notes with some citrus hops on the end for balance with a bit of a nutty ending. Overall a good drinking a solid ale for this style
