Rockbottom Ale

Brewed by Rockbottom Bar & Brewery
Style: English Pale Ale
Halifax, Canada

Pale straw colour with a thin haziness and a light white head. Aroma is fairly wheaty with a light grassiness. A touch of fruitiness (both from the yeast and from a lightly citrusy choice of hop). Fairly crisp finish. It’s sessionable, but not all that interesting.

On tap in the Rockbottom Bar in Halifax. Weak aroma of citrus fruit. Hazy golden colour with a thin white lace. thin in texture. Citrus flavour. a bit like dirty dishwasher liquid. Weak.

On tap at the pub. Pale golden colour with a mostly diminishing frothy white head. Faint fruity aroma and similar mineral notes as the wheat. Light bread and fruity flavours with the same acidic twang as the wheat - which fits much less with this one than it does with the wheat. Light bodied, firm mouthfeel.
