Sneakily balanced, Copperhead Pale Ale has just enough of a hop bite to balance the nutty Golden Promise malt at it's heart. Clean, crisp, and citrusy, it's the classic American Pale.

12oz Bottle thanks to Darrel. Pours out a copper topped with a small head. Nose is light hop floral and malt sweetness. Taste is a little grapefruit peel and a touch of sweetness. Pretty light on the hops.

Pour is a amber with a small white head. Aroma is a decent sweet malt with a little lingering hop. Flavor is a decent mix of the malts and hops. Malts are sweet and caramel and the hops are earthy and bitter. An ok beer. I wish the hops were a little more forward as this is more about the malts.

Bottle: Poured a copper color ale with a medium size head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of light citrus notes with dry caramel malt notes. Taste is also dominated by dry caramel notes with some light citrus undertones. Body is about average with good carbonation. Easily quaffable thought hops profile is bit more subdued then I had expected.

Bottle. Pours clear copper with a medium beige creamy head and nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is caramel, hay and pine. Flavor is the same, light sweet, light bitter. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel. Drinks like a hoppy amber or red IPA, nothing special here.

Bottle from RobertDale - thanks. Pours a clear copper with a fluffy beige head. Aroma is mild with bready malts and modest floral hops. A little citrus and caramel come through in the taste with more floral hops. Medium intensity. Nice.

On tap at the brewery. Lots of nice floral notes on the aroma. Pours a very clear pale, beautiful. Very bitter finish. Not getting the c-hops on this....but i am from the Left Coast so maybe i expect too much! solid.
