COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This great American Pale Ale is hand-crafted with a natural blend of the finest barley malt, Munich, Carapils and Crystal specialty malts, Cascade and Williamette hops and pure water. The taste is clean and complex, with a fruit accent and a dry, hoppy finish.

Bottle: Medium floral hop. Decent hop flavors but the supporting beer is a bit weak. Nothing special.

At Rainbo in Chicago, 09.20.08. Clear gold, off white head. Aroma is citrus and malt. Flavor is the same, thin body, not very hoppy, and mostly wheaty.

cblado (189) - Wisconsin, USA - SEP 21, 2008
12 oz bottle. Color was a hazy yellow. Aroma had some hops, kind of a corny hint too. Flavor was similar. I didn’t think this was terrible, but I’ve had much better APA’s.

Poured golden yellow color with a white head. Aroma was of sweet corn and grass. Flavor was much the same with maybe some hops thrown in. Blah.

Ah Point, cheap beer that goes beyond lager. The only reason this is ok is that its a pale, but it might be the weakest pale ale in existance. Drinkable is one way to put it, watered down is another. Either way its pretty easy to drink a bunch of these.

I hate it when nice people bring bad beer to share. This was one. An enemic white head topped a clear pale yellow body. There was a sweet, BMC aroma and taste. Just didn’t find anything to recommend this.

Beerdedone (2188) - Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA - DEC 1, 2007
Bottle sampled. Pours a light amber with a off-white head. Aroma of pale malts, grassy hops, and notes of citrus. Flavor of grains, light malts, faint citrus and some light hoppiness with a dry finish.
