3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
My Bottom Line:
Earthy hop resins surround the mild malt sweetness in this smooth and moderately bitter American-style Pale Ale.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A pillowy head of foam slowly sinks into the hazy blond orange.
-Some caramel undertones are felt.
-The handpump serving imparts a very smooth mouthfeel.
-I am used to enjoying more hop aromatics from the style, so the politely citrusy nose was a little too subdued for my tastes.
-The resinous hop bitterness is lengthy but never overbearing.
On cask at the brewpub.

Draught Small head, very fast gone over (cold) hazy pale-orange beer. Nutty nose, slighly oxydized malts, followed after some time by UK-like hops; further caramel. Very nice lightly bitter in the British way, but with a strange retronasal flavour, very outspokenly reminiscent of peanut butter. Not really light body; good carbonation. Strange, but certainly not bad - makes a good ’quaffing’ ale.

UPDATED: SEP 3, 2010 pinta spillata direttamente al birrificio. ottima birra, estremamente beverina ma non per questo poco gustosa. Aroma e sapore sono piacevolmente complessi per lo stile birraio in questione. Nell’insieme direi una buona birra.

750ml bottle from Peckham’s. Hazy reddish amber brown colour, not much head. Orange & tropical fruit aroma. Biscuit & orange flavour, Very dry finish. Different take on an American Pale Ale, less hoppy than expected but not bad.
