Truck Trail is named for the Anderson Truck Trail in Alpine, CA and is a tribute to rural American back roads where locals go for off-roading and other shenanigans. This American Pale Ale features a balanced blend of Cascade and Centennial hops. It pours a golden yellow with an eggshell colored beer foam and its bold hop-bitterness is perfectly balanced by a mellow, malty sweetness. Dominant notes of fresh pine needles and zesty citrus rind make this a classic example of the style.

Off white fluffy head left a decent cover on a still, translucent, light copper coloured body. Spice, pine, peach & Haribos aroma. Medium to thin bodied, prickly to the fore with a smooth soft back & clean aft. Bitter piney tastes with peach, citrus & zest. Very clean & refreshing.

12oz can pours with a clear pure gold body that supports a thin off white head of foam. The aroma offers up floral and spicy hops as well as a thin crystal malt sensation. The taste delivers spicy hops, a touch of pine hop bitterness, floral hop bitterness and then some lightly roasted malts to crystal malts. Overall there's plenty of hop bitterness to pair up with the maltiness that's going on here. Nice bitter hopped Pale.
