Draft. Hazy yellow with white head that fades. Nice lacing. Light bitterness. No hoppy aroma. Nice but yazoo's pale ale is better. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pint on tap, with two chances. Light haze on the amber body with a small, lasting ring of cream. Nose is mild with wooden hops and faint, light fruitiness. Middling taste of the same, with some added toast and a bitterness from a woody-pithy flavor that dominates. Light-medium body is well balanced and has medium carbonation. Decent for your average English pub bitter, but pretty unremarkable otherwise.

Tap at The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours hzy gold with a creamy white head. Aroma of light pitted fruits. Med body. Metallic tang. Light pitted fruit(towards apricot) with a lot of citrus bitter. Finishes fresh and bitter. Most Xcellent.

Retro Extra Pale. Tap at Pizza Port OB. Clear light amber with a one finger white head, pretty decent retention. Flavor has lots of biscuit malt, light sweaty Cascade hops present. Minimal sweetness, zero caramel. Aroma followed suit. Dry finish, bitterness at a 3. Light body with light to moderate carbonation. Good summer beer, though might be boring to some. 7-4-7-4-14--3.6 mainly because of drinkability. No flaws.
