Draft. Pours amber with a white head. Lighter floral and citric hops, with pale malts and a light caramel malty sweetness. Well balanced and easily sessionable.

DocLock (5776) - Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 8, 2011
Draft at PBC. Poured hazy dark straw toward copper with off-white head. Nose was assertive resiny hops, caramel malt, peppery notes. Tasted crisp, caramel malty, with a nice solid hop element that integrated well with the malt. This one was good.

On tap at PBC. Amber pour with a white head. Hoppy aroma with a little sweetness hiding underneath. Really nice flavor, mildly sweet malt with a dominant but not over the top hop kick, perfectly balanced and easy drinking... the perfect session beer. Probably the best APA ive ever had.

This is a new offering from Pocono Brewing and is not the same beer as the PBC Pale Ale that was brewed several years ago. Draught. Arrived at the table in a pounder glass a clear gold with a very thin head that faded to a ring after several sips. Light aroma of flowery hops and malt. Flavor was a bit light but balanced between malt and hops with some lingering hops bitterness at the finish. Very easy to drink.

hopdog (6943) - Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 31, 2007
On tap at the PBC ’Brew Pub’. I’m assuming this is the one I had. The waitress said this was called the ’Old Bastard’ and was an ’Ale’. Poured a medium golden/amber color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of mainly citrus and lightly floral. Tastes of citrus and light caramel. Thinner body.
