[Draft @ brewery] Clouded amber hue, good head formation. Good fruity hop citrus on the nose. Sweet, slightly sugarry malt flavor, light bitterness. Touch of cardboard that was also present in their IPA. Still a decent pale.

Clear and a darker golden color. Pretty light for a pale ale. Had at the brewery on tap.

Off tap @ IE brewery, white head, pale in color, lite hoppy taste.This wasn’t a bad thing that it wasn’t hoppy and I liked it.

A little bit of buggy nose, tart, with hints of light sweetness and grassy floral hops. Golden pour with a big creamy head and some sticky lace. Notes of caramel, bread, and floral/grassy hops. All with an odd buggy tartness. Not bad, but as I drank more it became a little off putting and with work this one could be a decent session ale.

A smooth pale ale - almost yellow in color with a white frothy head. Sweet and spicy with a dry bitter finish. Served a little cold, and that may show why I couldn’t detect much in the way of hop presence in the nose.

On tap at brewery. Light golden color with a fluffy white head. Mild hops to the aroma. Malty taste with strong grassy notes on the back end.

Taster at the brewery. Dark gold pour with a white head. Not alot of aroma, slightly off. Taste was very fruity, not much of a hop profile at all, not great, but they are working on it and I will revisit when they tweak the recipe a bit.
