Tap, poured a dark orange color with a medium white head. Initial flavor has a nice bite to it, with a bitterness more akin to an IPA than a regular pale ale. The bitterness dies away and the flavor becomes a bit more subdued. A nice selection that I enjoyed.

Draft - part of sampler at brewery. Pours an amber/brown color with a normal-sized slightly off-white head. Aroma is malts, grass and citrus. Flavor is much the same. Pretty balanced IMO. Quite drinkable.

On tap at the brewpub. Dark orange or amber with an off white head. Decent citrus aroma and flavor with bisuity malt. Mild bitterness and dry finish. Kind of Dale’s light.

On draft at the brewpub. A pretty plain and straight forward pale ale. Typical appearance, decent head and lacing. Aroma of grains and citrus/floral hopping. Flavors followed but the malt seemed to have a bit of wheat in there, the finish certainly accentuated by bittering hops too. Overall, the flavor was a bit too weak and the mouthfeel watery/thin (wanted more out of this), but an ok drinker ahead of the Flyers’ game 4 W over Les Habs.

Pours an orange-ish with a creme head. Minimal nose. Flavor is nice and hopped. Definitely a hop heads delight. But it’s definitely not a hop bomb though. Just comes at you in a firm fashion. Leaves a lasting impression in the mouth. Very nice drinker.
