Commercial Description:
St-Ambroise Pale Ale is the brewery's flagship beer. Introduced in February 1989, it is a hoppy, amber, full-flavoured ale. In The Simon and Schuster Pocket Guide To Beer , beer critic Michael Jackson gave it three stars and described it as: "An outstanding ale... amber-red, clean and appetizing, with a very good hop character, from its bouquet to its long finish. Hoppy, fruity, and tasty all the way through."

Pours medium amber with a slightly off-white head that lasts fairly well. Nice light, floral hops, some sweet malt notes and light fruitiness on the nose. Med. body and carbonation. Sweet, malty with flavours of butterscotch candy. A little hops comes through and sl. bitterness to finish.

(draught) hazy gold with smallish head. Floral hops aroma - not too strong. Mixed sweetish malt, some fruit, some hops in flavor.

Bottle: Slightly hazy, amber coloured, smaller, absolutely stable head, that sticks to the glass; enormous aromatic hoppy and fruity nose, some malt in the background; stronger bitter-sweet flavour; peppery hoppy, resinous finish, well balanced by some malt, lingering bitter aftertaste. Superb stuff, joss !

Bottle. Creamy white good mostly lasting head. Nice amber colour. Powerfull hoppy aroma. Good flavor, moderate long finish. Oily palate and a liottle fizzy. But a really nice beer.

Bottle. <!-- p --> Pours an attractive golden amber with a modest head. The aroma is fruity - apple and peach - with a whisper of grassy hops. The flavor is gently sweet, again with the fruit notes - especially peach - dominating early before handing off to well-balanced if laid back floral hops. <!-- p --> The flavors run toward an ESB and the whole comes together in a very drinkable way. I renjoyed this beer greatly.

Amber golden color. It has the aroma of hops and the taste of caramel and fruits. It is a very good example of a pale ale.

Verre de dégustation, provenant d’une bouteille de 341 ml, dégusté au Festival Bières et Saveurs 2006 (Chambly, QC) lors d’une conférence de Guy Lévesque. Arôme: Odeur de caramel et d’apricot. Apparence: La couleur est ambrée avec une moyenne densité de bulle. Présence d’un mince col mousseux avec une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de miel et d’houblon. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement minérale. Faible effervescence en bouche. Très légère présence de pétillant en arrière goût. (Rating #629)
