Mild/OK carbonation. realale420 (399), west covina, California, USA Nov 7, 2006 Bottle from trade (thanks?) poured a clear pale color with small white head. The aroma was highly hopped with some good caramel notes popping threw. Taste was great for a pale with a good balance between hops and malts with a dry finish that had some lingering hops. Nice American Pale. Dorwart (1807), Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA Nov 4, 2006 Dedent sized head of off white fluffy bubbles. Very good carbonation. Nice hoppy aroma with some light buttery malts in there. Juniper also. Color is a bright orange brown. Body and flavor is a little thin. Some more hops, citrus this time, and buttery toffee. Pretty crisp palate. Finish is clean and slightly bitter with a linger citrus tang. Decent for a pale ale and could be a regular brew for those who have access to it.
