Tap at Bakuon. A lovely copper color with a surprisingly deep biscuit aroma. Is this supposed to be English style? Yep, the medium body delivers big biscuit, wafers, malts and a mild bitterness. Alright but my default when I see pale ale is to expect hops. It showcases the malts well though.

Tap at Bakuon 16. Orange color, a bit hazy, with lace. Light spicy hop nose, rich UK malt. Maris Otter really comes through here. Rich, tasty Maris flavor, bready, biscuits. Simple hop flavor even though the bill was rather complex. Nelson comes though just a bit, but here the malt is the star. Rich, complex malts without being sweet.
