Moab Brewery Scorpion Pale Ale

Thanks to someone within my company for sending me this beer! It just showed up in a care package on day??

Pours a bronze body an a fluffy off white head. The aroma has a floral blast of big American hops… lots of grapefruit peel and pinesap similarities. The flavor has a nice toasty malt backbone, some caramel, but the finish is bitter lemon grass and dry with hops; maybe a bit astringent… The palate is rather thin but overall this was an unexpected surprise! At 4% abv this is basically the perfect session beer for me… hoppy and very drinkable!

12oz bottle thanks to blutt59. Light orange pour with very little head. Aromas of caramel malt and some faded citrus hops. Flavor is similar and very dry - some toasted malt.

(12oz bottle thanks to blutt59) clear rich golden color with a film of tan head. Nose of orange, faded hops, creamsickle. Taste of old hops, dry cracker, bitter, pine, citrus rind oil, not very good.

Amber coloured beer with a small white head and some light carbonation. Hoppy bitter hinted aroma with some light fruity hopflower hints. Medium to full palate. Finish is bitter hoppy hinted. Nice hoppy beer.

A good pale ale. A strong taste with a clear bitterness. Enjoyable beer.

Bottle thanks to Douglas. Poured a clear amber with a gold hue and a near white head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of bread and biscuit with a backing pine note that has a hint of resin. Flavor starts with bread and grain with a bit of growing sweetness and hint of resin bitterness in the finish.

(12oz bottle) Pours a clear amber body with small off-white head. Aroma of caramel, nuts, and citrus. Flavor of grass, caramel malt, citrus, and toasted grain with a mildly bitter finish.

Had on draft at the brewery. Nose: toasted grains Taste: Toasted grains, floral and pine hop flavors, bitter from start to finish

bottle, amber colored with an aroma and flavor of dry papery caramel and malt, none too good

A: poured into a snifter. As soon as I opened it, foam started gushing out. Once poured a deep, clear amber color radiates from the glass. Massive head, primarily due to over carbonation, with a moderate retention level. Decent lacing. S: nice subtle hoppy aroma, but rather faint. some citrus is about all can pull out of this, along with a nice crystal malt aroma. T: decent flavor, a little too sweet for the style. No major hop characteristic in this one, it is there but very mild. some definite crystal malt flavors. M: ever had a warm Coca-Cola can? this is how carbonated it is. It almost makes the beer undrinkble. crisp and rather thin. D: I couldn’t finish it due to the carbonation level. It seemed that if it were properly carbonated, the flavors and body were a lot better than the score given.

Draft @ Mountain Brewers Beer Fest 2010, Idaho Falls, ID. Pours a pale amber color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity malty hoppy aroma. Fruity malty hoppy citrus flavor. Has a fruity malty hoppy bitter finish.
