Commercial Description:
This pale ale is generously hopped yet balanced through the use of Munich and Crystal malts. Hops added after fermentation gives this American classic an intense aromatic bouquet. Enjoy!

light brown pour nice white head touch of lace. Apple skin and more overripe sweet rank smells.. thin pal. Terrible tste again, oxidized, rusty pipewater w/ rotten apple skin. The apple is nasty.

Bottle via Skyview. The beer pours to a hazy amber body with a thin white head. The aroma is strongly crystal malts and a moderate Munich. Grainy cereal. The flavor is very cereal like and seems to taste like wort instead of a finished beer. Not many hops. Very average beer.

[Bottle, thanks Skyview] Pours hazy orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is really weak with hops slightly present. Taste is light bitterness from the hops and a lot of malt in the finish. Medium-thin mouthfeel. This was better than the Belgian Pale but not as good as the Night Train--so drinkable but still not real good.

Another one from Skyview! Copper color and a very thin head. Slightly bitter aroma. A pinch of apple. Slightly grainy taste. A little bitterness. Not much hop-specific bitterness, but an okay APA.

Had this one bottled, thank you Slothgar! Hazy, bright amber pour with a rapidly dissipating off-white head, a powerful nose of rosy hops and a little bit of sour apple. Mouthfeel is prominent. Taste is excellent, even for this style, complex with hops at the top of an assortment of fruits. Good, strong finish. This was really quite good.

Wow this is not good... tastes like a rotten apple dipped in fresh plastic... no joke! Too much apple in this one and not enough hops.
