Sequoia Pale Ale

Brewed by Sequoia Brewing Company
Style: American Pale Ale
Fresno, California USA

Serve in Lager glass, Shaker

pale, golden, amber, sweet and moreish tried with pork sausages and cider casserole and complimented nicely

My Bottom Line:
Spicy hops and their piney bitterness scent this American Pale Ale’s light cereal sweetness, building a very drinkable example of the style.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam laces a bit atop the clear golden amber.
-This may have been served too cold for my preference, but it remained my favourite session beer of theirs, out of the 4 I had.
-The aroma does not make you expect the brightness of the hops in the flavour profile and finish.
-The malts don’t have much personality, but they do contribute to the crisp, engaging mouthfeel.

On tap at the north Fresno location.

Bottle @ Yosemite National Park. Average creamy white head that mostly diminished. Spare display of lacework. Amber color. Aroma of citrus, fruit, grapefruit, light caramel and hint of tasted malty notes as well. Light to medium bodied with an average carbonation and light dry texture. Light bitter and sweet flavor. Light bitter dry finish. Average APA but the surroundings made it a nice experience.

This hazy yellow beer poured with a fluffy white head and a faint banana aroma. There is a thin caramel malt flavor with a little hop bitterness.

Yellow. No aroma. Nothing really to it. Not bad, not good. Nothing exciting. Just a beer.

Light clear copper color. Cascade hops aroma. Very hoppy flavor, with faint matliness and a bitter bite at the finish. Crisp bubbly feel.

Hazy orange color. Sour apple in the aroma. The flavor was mildly sweet with a strong citric hoppy bitterness. Medium consistency.
