A good first beer... mild, crisp, clean, and extremely well made.

Nice and hoppy but not too dry. Had it from the tap. Good palate and pleasant after taste. Recommended.

I’d like to try this one again. Very unusual for the type of beer it was. The addition of the slight juniper/evergreen taste to the lighter beer was not unpleasant. I’d have to drink it again to say if I really liked it or if it was just another beer that was a little better than the rest, though.

I like to rate beers mostly according to smell and taste. My philosopy on beer has always been: the colder the better. The same holds true with an ice cold Yellow Snow. I thought the smell had a nice sweet bouquet. Very smooth taste with a unique bite. Leaves a good after taste and sits well on the tum. Highly recommended.

I thought this was a pretty interesting ale. I had a love affair with gin, that I had to give up, so I was interested to see what the Juniper berries would bring to the mix. Very subtle. Good brew..

If the label is correct, this is the best tasting pissed on snow I’ve ever had. I thought the beer was very tasty and smooth

Love the color, love the flavor (love juniper, love gin), love the marketing concept.

some hops, not enough. too thin. boring. guess i didn’t see the ’american’ in the ’pale ale’. tooo pale. just didn’t have body or character.

Decent hop bite but not much else going on, you have to work too hard to figure out if you can taste the juniper. The best thing about the beer may be the little whizzing guy they peddle to put on the taps.

My favorite rogue ale. Great taste and great label.
