Like the Kölsch beer that makes Cologne famous, our St. James Pale Ale is a medium bodied blonde brew that’s soft on the palette with a malty finish. Restraint is shown by our hop loving brewers as they add four additions to achieve low bitterness and a floral finish. Slow fermentation gives this beer its smooth fruity flavour that makes us say “yes, we’d gladly have another!”

Hazy blond color. Aroma of brewer’s malt, light yeast. The flavor is too anonymous, the light malt is even joined by a vague vegetables trace. Simple.

Bottle at a tasting. Thanks David Cohen. Slightly hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of grains, caramel notes, hops hints and light floral notes. Sweet stale grains flavor with some malt and very faint bitter hints in the finish. Light-bodied.

At a tasting, thanks David, almost no head, clear lemon yellow colour, aroma of fruit with touches of vanila and grass, stale grainy flavour with almost no hops, light and a little foul aftertaste, a bit like an industrial lager.

Bottle: Poured a light dirty yellow color ale with a rather large foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of light sweet malt with not much other characteristic distinguishable. Taste is also dominated by light sweet malt with some very subtle floral notes and some cereal notes are also distinguishable. Body is about average with good carbonation. Interesting but nothing extraordinary - not the best this brewery has to offer.

A light blonde ale with a thick frothy white head. A very lemony malt and hops aroma, light sulfur note. In mouth, an interesting light malt with very herbal hops, one of the lightest Half Pints tasted too date. Quaffer. Bottle from Psicator32, thanks Kris.
