2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Orange with little carbonation or head. APA citrus comes through but like a syrup rather than an integrated part of the brew. Sticky and sickly.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Golden pour with a disappearing head. Nose has some stone fruit and caramel malts. Taste has an ok fruity hop bitterness. Pretty simple beer but not a bad quaffer. Reminds me a little bit like liberty pale ale. Actually not too bad this one! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours an amber colour with a small head. Aroma is light fruit and hops. Taste is light sweet leading to a light bitterness. Not bad.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pale ale in pale lager clothing. Some fruity flavours combine with mild bitterness but otherwise quite a bland beer. CUB-like finish of stale hops.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Poured a clear bright amber colour with a thin white bubbly head that diminished quickly/collapsed to nothing. No lace. Low carbonation. Aroma of floral hops. Taste initially slightly sweet followed by a very mild bitterness, too mild for a pale ale. Light body with slightly watery mouthfeel. Short smooth mildly bitter finish. OK.
1.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Large head near strong carbonation deep gold pour aromas fruity hops sweet malt biscuit flavours a sweet ale caramel stonefruit mild bitter strange tastes though the finish sweet sour mix of tastes fruit flavours destroyed rough tasting ale at the finish
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
345ml brown bottle from DMs. Pour is amber-gold with a small transient cream-white head. Nose is grainy malts and lightly fruity hops (oranges, apricots). Taste is medium sweet fruitiness balanced by a medium hop bitterness. Quite light bodied with a light texture and easy drinkability. A straightforward unpretentious APA suitable for a session.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
345ml Bottle- A decent and drinkable beer but a bit of limp wristed punch though.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours amber with a fading white head.
Sweet malty aroma along with some vegetal notes and soft spicy hops.
Malty flavours too with a little caramel even showing up in there. Pretty inoffensive. Not too bad.
Light body.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
345ml bottle from Dan Murphy’s. Looks better than expected with a vibrant golden sunset orange colour and a loosely packed head of white foam that settles quickly. There are some floral and citrus hop notes which make things interesting. The flavour lends itself to an easy drinking pale ale and you could easily knock a few of these over on a hot summers day.
