Commercial Description:
JW Dundee’s American Pale Ale brewed true to style with a complex hop aroma, flavor and bitterness. We brew this American Pale Ale with Cascade, Tomahawk and Amarillo hops to create the hop profile that defines the beers character. This combination of hops creates a complex citrus hop aroma, deep flavor and a long crisp bitterness. The interaction of the different varieties gives both depth and complexity to the Pale Ale. Although the malt character is subdued, it plays an important role in balancing the hop complexity and keeps the beer from being one-dimensional. We use our 2 Row Pale Malt with a 60º Lovibond Caramel malt to give the perfect base for our hops. These malts give the beer its light malty flavor and orangey amber hue.

A hazy orange beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with a light flowery note. The flavor is sweet malty with light notes of flowers and elderberries.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a clear, amber golden with tiny impurities. Small, white head. Light aroma of hops. Thin body with vague caramel notes and a lightly hoppy finish. Very drinkable, but not really a grand APA. 210606

(12oz bottle) Clear amber body with off-white head, nice lacing. Aroma is medium sweet, floral, caramel, bread, orange, some lime. Taste is medium sweet, bread, caramel, grapefruit, some orange, light lime. The citrus tastes a bit off. Light-medium body. Better than expected, but SN has nothing to fear.

Bottle. Fairly decent in the end. Nice aromatic hop notes in the nose. palate feels a little thin and straightforward/dull. There is some nice flavour in here, but there is no depth and complexity. Some citric, lightly piney hop notes in here. Drinkable stuff.
