COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Pyramid Pale Ale is a rich copper colored brew that is generously hopped with the Northwest’s famous Cascade hops for a truly refreshing finish.

Orange tinted amber, fairly carbonated, and with a thin carbonated cream head. The hop nose was quite tangy--at first leading me to suspect amarillo hops. A definite sweet, fruity, and citric pungence as well--via hop and malt intermixing. The flavor is correspondingly of sweet, tangy hops with a definite fruity and citrus character. Impressive for an EPA--if that’s what it really is.

A decent brew overall. Lacking abit in flavor and aroma - but makes for a nice session beer.

Delicious sweet malt/floral hops bouquet. Burnt malt flavor followed by a somewhat empty finish: salty and weak (the finish, that is. The beer is pretty decent).

Copper, like a SNPA with annoying astringency. Could benefit from dry hops.

Tap. Dark golden copper color. Lots of hops in the aroma and malty flavor and body.

I really liked this beer -- very malty. It almost completely lacked any hoppy bitterness though. If you don’t like bitter, you’ll love this beer.
