Great Lakes Brewing Devils Pale Ale

Brewed by Great Lakes Brewing (Ontario)
Style: American Pale Ale
Etobicoke, Canada

473 ml can courtesy of matt7215. Pours a dark brown with thin, off-white head. Aroma is roasty malt. Flavor is roasty malt with nut and a hint of coffee. Er. excuse me, this is not an APA. This is a brown ale. Mouthfeel is a bit thinner than I would want from a brown. It isn’t a Pale Ale. Not a bad beer but not a pale ale and only an OK brown.

A dark amber with brown hues and a thick light moka head. Aroma is very nutty, caramel, fudge, very enticing. In mouth, a bit too much in your faces, but good nutty malt, with sweet coffee moka, and some burned toast bitterness. None of the hops expected, i guess its covered by the malts. A good brown ale, but this isnt an APA. However, still a good beer. Bought at LCBO.

473ml can from matt7215. Pours an indian red colour, head is tight and creamy, about a finger and a half in height. Aroma is malty with a little nut and caramel, faint leafy hops. The beer starts with caramel/toffee malt, moderate sweetness, aftertaste is tofeeish with a little earthy and toasty malt and some moderate but noticable herbal hop bitterness. More like an amber ale, pretty drinkable.

Appearance: Russet with large off-white head. Aroma: Toffee, bread crusts, light floral hop aroma but mostly malty. Flavour: Burnt toast, roasted malt and malty sweet with a medium bitterness. Tastes oxidized. Mouthfeel: Light bodied and fizzy. Overall: A medium hopped typical "brewpub amber" with a pinch more roasted barley. Finishes toasty and buttery with a low floral hop flavour.

This pale ale was a very dark orange colour with a nice white foamy head. To the nose you could smell scents of hopps, sweet malt and ripe fruit just to name a few. First taste was very smooth and malty with a hoppy finish and a somewhat bitter palate. A nice IPA.

Can - 500ml. Pours a dark copper body with low carbonation and a thin beige foamy head. Its malty aroma carries strong fruity and caramel hints. Malty/hoppy taste is well balanced, but lacks some complexity. It ends with a decent bittersweet finish. Interesting.

Thanks to Tupalev. Toasty malt, light chocolate, fruity hops are pretty restrained. Flavor is sweet malt, slight caramel, meladonin, a hint of hops to round it out. Very nice mouthfeel. bitter finish.

473ml can, 6% a/v Pours a dark brown colour with a nice tan head, some lacing on the glass. Smells malty, and hoppy with a nice earth base. The taste is malt, chocolate, caramel, and roasted grain with a very nice hop balance. The mouthfeel is very full and the aftertaste very complex. I thought the idea of 666kg of malt, 6.66kg hops, etc etc, would make for a good gimmick but possibly limit the beer, in fact it makes for a very nice, complex and delicious recipe.
