Brewed by Otter Creek Brewing
Style: American Pale Ale
Middlebury, Vermont USA

Serve in Lager glass, Shaker

12 oz bottle. Enjoyed this at the end of a power century. Pours hazy orange body and has a strong hop aroma. The taste is hop as well, very bitter.

Pours a rich copper-amber body and a fluffy cloud-like whitish head. Big caramel-candy nose. Medium-soft mouthfeel. Metallic presence lingers after first sip. Distinct bitter grapefruit and citrus finish. Not too bad, but a little oxidized.

12oz bottle. Pours golden burnt orange with soapy off-white head. Aroma is malty and citrus hops. Flavor is hops, bready malts, citrus and touch of caramel. Mouthfeel is thick and malty but does have hop bitterness. Nothing special but far from the worst APA I have had.

This beer was very refreshing. The organic component lended a nice crisp and clean taste with good hops balance backing it. Left a subtle finish, good.

Reminds me more of an English Pale Ale. Hazy amber color. Some head and lace. Some malt and grapefruit aroma. Lots of malt, listed hops, and citrus in the flavors. Also big in the sweetness dept. Not one of my favs. Kind of a long finish.

Slightly hazy amber, moderate off-white head. Nice aromatic fruity hop aroma. Nicely balanced sweet caramel malts and floral/fruity hop character with a medium-bitter finish. Easy-drinking, enjoyable.

(Bottle). Aroma is bready with a hint of citrus. Pretty reddish amber color with no head. Flavor is mild hops and citrus, braced by a balancing bitterness that by no means overpowers. Decent finish.

Bottle from Sondra. Color is sort of copper amber - but it changes with light and aspect. The white head didn’t last long. Bready aroma backed by a hint of bitter. Flavor is more than a hint of bitter. It’s roasted malt with citrus and grassy hop. Very tasty. Balanced, maybe even "perfectly" so. Finish is neither sweet nor dry, and there is a citrus nuance. Nice APA. No pretensions to grandeur, but it tastes good.
