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.

Botle - from sampler pack. OK. Not very hoppy for a pale ale. Kind of averaage really.

Draught at the Motley Cow in Iowa City, IA. Clear orange color with thin white head that left no lace. Grassy hop aroma with a bit of pine needles. Flavor was similar with the addition of biscuity malt. Unfortunately it finished kind of flat. I was expecting a little hop bitterness, but.....nothing.

Clear amber appearance, small white head, sparce lacing. Mild, malty aroma,with some citrusy hops lurking underneath. Fairly well balanced, medium-bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel. Hops are more evident as it finishes.

Not a bad effort. Good barley flavors and a bit of a hint of citrus. Good pub beer!

Pours a reddish golden color. Aroma is kind of sweet, with some nice hop scents. Flavor is grainy/citrus with a dry finish. Is there a difference between this and the Cascade Pale?

JohnnyOS (646) - Golden, Wisconsin, USA - FEB 27, 2006
Pours a golden color with orange highlights. Slightly off-white head that lingers. Aroma of grains, and light malt with some citrus accents. Flavor of grains, semi-sweet malts and some light hoppiness.

12oz bottle. Served in a shaker @ 51.5° right from the cellar. Pours golden with an orange tint and a one finger, off-white, rocky head. Earthy aroma. The initial taste is light malt sweetness, maybe a touch of honey and tropical fruits followed by an earthy, herbal bitterness and some light citrus on the finish. Body id on par for a typical APA. Better than any BMC and apparently it is similarly priced, but overall an uninteresting beer, with a decent bitterness. I think Heemer77 brought this by the house; Thanks.

Deep auburn color that is nearly clear. The aroma smells much lick wood varnish. The body is fairly light but has a solid malt core to it, not bad.
