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.

A decent ale, but nothing that great. Very evident hops. Harsh aftertaste.

Pours hazy golden color. Smells floral and hoppy, rather strongly for an APA. Tastes bitter with a citrus touch, medium body, bitter finish. Not exploding with flavor, but a good mild beer.

Nice deep gold color with good head. Hoppy citrus aroma. Flavors of grapefruit with llittle malt. Somewhat watery in the middle. A little unbalanced for my taste. Very bitter finish.

Dark straw colored with aroma of hopcit and some spice. Medium to light palate with a flavor of hopcit, malt, and some fruit. Decent, but not great.

Boy oh boy...not a lot going on here. A nice, soft bready aroma to start. Appearance is perhaps amber, but mostly pale. The taste, though...just not outstanding...a basic, not particularly remarkable, pale ale.

simple, well-hopped American pale. Substantial hop aroma with pine. Tasty hops, nicely carbonated. Lots of foam there. Grapefruit and malt finish.

Clear amber body, creamy white head with decent amount of lacing. Decent sweet and sweaty cascade hop aroma that I quickly realize is nothing special. Its okay though. Same goes with the taste. There is some underlying buttery sweetness behind the hops, and the finish has a slight astringency bite to it. Decent drink but typical.

Pretty stuff, shining copper with a big puffy white head. Smells like an APA, some hops, no real citrus, bit of malt. Quite hoppy, but mostly just plain bitter, no real Cascade-esque character for a brew whose label advertises it so proudly. At one point, a caramel/toffee maltiness tries to assert itself but gets smacked down by bitterness. Generic, thy name is Otter Creek Pale Ale.
