bbqben1 (3), Hamburg, New York, USA does not count Dec 22, 2007 This is my favorite beer of all time... I work next door to this place, and I have tried them all. This one is by far the best beer in the line-up! I could take the tour everyday and drink free samples until they ask me to leave! Magic Hat is the best beer in VT. Enjoy!! TheBeerLover (1011), DC Metro Area, USA Apr 23, 2006 Pours to a deep golden, to burnt orange color, with a nice white head, and a good bit of carbonation. The nose has a nice balance of citrus/grassy hop aromas paired with some good sweet and caramel malt aroma, and earthy yeast. The palate is firm, with lots of good pale, and sweet malt, paired with light fuity esters. Fat Angel finishes with more good pale and sweet malt up front, then ends with a snappy, citrus/grassy hop bite that lingers. Very well done pale ale, with good flavor, and good drinkability. Very food friendly beer as well that would pair well with a variety of dishes. Great beer. Prostman (1076), Pennsylvania, USA Mar 11, 2003 This was a very good and very mellow ale. Outstanding drinkablility and one ale that would be perfect for a session in bar or for concerts in the Summer. Krausen (102), USA Jul 2, 2005 This is one of the best beers I have had all year. Evident Maris Otter malt flavor with a perfectly balanced bitterness that does not overpower the finish. Restrained fruity esters and subtle hopping coupled with a medium but chewy malt body round out this beauty. It is a shame I have such limited access to this on the west coast. HighlanderOne (453), Somewherein, New Jersey, USA May 5, 2002 This seemed to be sort of a hybrid beer, not quite a pale ale, but more hops than most ales. Unique flavor, nice feel and finish. An interesting beer.
