COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
American brewers have developed many new beer styles in the past twenty years, but none is more popular than the American Pale Ale. Ours has a firm malty foundation with plenty of hop flavor and aroma on tap.

On draft at the New Hope brewery. Pours a semi-clear orange gold with a medium white head. Aroma of faint orange peel and grapefruit. Taste is similar to the aroma, hoppy with orange peel and grapefruit hints. Citrusy aftertaste. Average.

Draft at Philly. Clear orange with a large head. Aroma of pine and floral hops and a fair amount of caramel malt. Well balanced and drinkable!

illinismitty (2239) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - MAY 15, 2007
Draft at Philly location. Pours amber with a great off white head. Faint floral nose. Maltiness is subtle, with the hops really taking over. Semi dry and mildy soapy bitter finish. Not bad, but I prefer a little more maltiness to balance out my APAs.

obxdude10 (1811) - Pottstown, Pennsylvania, USA - DEC 2, 2006
Great APA, light amber color, silky off-white head, great lacing down the glass, very floral nose with hints of citrus & orange, full-bodied, very drinkable, hoppy & fairly bitter flavor with a nice malt profile for balance, dry finish

whaleman (2175) - North Wales, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 16, 2006
Growler from New Hope. Warm orange-amber body with a fading, buffy head. Vibrant hop aroma with notes of pine, cinnamon, and resin plus some sweet toasty backing. Flavor is well-balanced with a woody, toasted edge and some crystal malt sweetness. Fresh, quaffable pale ale.

Dickinsonbeer (5077) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - JUN 16, 2006
New Hope. Pours a nice medium amber, moslty clear and a lasting off white head. Aroma is citrusy, with light pine and orange notes and a crisp sweet malt backbone. Flavor is smooth and lightly sweet upfront but then the citrus hops finish off with a nice clean crisp bitterness. A bit more malt than expected, which held up nice against the fruity and citrus hops. Nice APA.

Beerdedone (2188) - Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 25, 2006
Sampled at New Hope location. Pours deep golden with a decent white head. aroma of citrus, hops, sweet malts. Flavor is much of the same, with the hops affecting the finish with a good bitterness. Good body, good brew.
