Commercial Description:
A refreshing, golden amber brew, with Cascade hops from the Yakima Valley. Adding Cascades during conditioning captures the rich aroma of the hop, and completes the clean, well-balanced flavor of our American pale ale. Crisp, refreshing and exotically aromatic.

Hoppy aroma. Orange-brown body with an off-white head and slight lace. Hoppy flavor with a bit of floral. Dry hopped with bitter finish.

One bottle from my good friend JB. Poured a nice white head with hops aroma. It had a flavor of malt and lemon with a slight hops bite at the end. Very refreshing .

A decent Vermontian Pale Ale, didn’t go overboard with the hop bitterings, decent malt to balance it out, and it is a coppery kind of brew. As advertised, a good brew, nothing spectacular.

Otter Creek Pale Ale pours to a beautiful, pale golden color with a nice white head, and a good bit of carbonation. The nose on this beer is classic, with lots of vibrant, lemony/citric hop aroma paired with slight hints of estery fruit. The palate is actually leaner than I remember, and is just a tad smaller than it should be. This is a minor flaw however, as it makes the beer even more quaffable. Some nice pale malt flavors and juicy, estery fruit flavors coat the tongue. Otter Creek Pale Ale finishes with some crisp maltiness up front, then ends with a very pleasing, dry, citric hop bite that slightly lingers.

The first time I had one of these, I thought it wasn’t very good.....maybe I’m not a huge fan of bitterness without some other flavors. This a single hop beer by the sound of Otter Creek’s blurb. That being said.... Clear dark orange pour with a small white head. Doughy, yeasty aroma. Nicely spiced and just the right amount of hop bitterness on the finish.

Ths stuff isn’t too bad, it’s got a nice retaining head that laces well. The aroma is subtle hops. Palate is a bit thin, but the flavor is nice bitter hops, enjoyable stuff.

Orange-gold color with minimal white head. Aroma of grapefruit, honey, malt. Clean tasting palate with nice balance. Dry finish.
