COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Generally, our number one seller, this is a British style pale ale with a good hop bitterness befitting the style. Brewed with 2-row Pale, Pale Ale, and 60 degree lovibond Caramel malts. Hopped with Magnum hops for bittering, and East Kent Goldings for aroma and flavor. Alcohol by volume: 6% to 6.5%.

DYCSoccer17 (2788) - Woodland, California, USA - JUN 4, 2005

4 ounce sample. Aroma is extremely faint and slightly sweet. I cant get much more out of this aroma. Copper/amber transparent color with an off-white/tan heas and nice lacing. Mildly caramel maltiness in the middle with small hop bitterness to finish. Boring.

IMtheOptimator (1161) - Bethel, Connecticut, USA - DEC 7, 2004

Ruby red murky appearance with a strong hops aroma. The taste is pretty much all hops. Watery body. One-dimensional but it works. It’s lack of sourness and all other things outlandishly disgusting is probably why it’s one of their best sellers.

Oakes (10202) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - JUN 23, 2004

Cloudy amber colour. Slightly toasty, slightly fruity aroma. mellow, but balanced flavour. There’s a hint of crystal malts (OK, so the description says caramel malts). Hint of apricoty hops, toast. Well-made, if a little shy.

Vac (2442) - Soon to be back in San Diego, California, USA - OCT 23, 2002

Deep amber gold color, slightly cloudy with littel to medium thick head. sweet fruity malt aroma with hoppy undertones. very sweet and fruity malt flavor with very slight hop finish.
