Copper Cone Pale Ale is a special offering, aroma rich, pale ale that may vary the hops, malts and even sometime the yeast used. Typically this beer is an “over the top” Pale Ale with a deep copper color and loads of dry hopping going into each batch. The fresh hop aroma of this beer makes it a stand out. Stronger in alcohol and body than CAPT’N CROMPTON’S PALE ALE and appeals to beer aficionados.

Bottle 65 cl. Pours a cloudy amber with a roughish off-white head. Tropical fruit aroma with peachy aromas dominating. Medium body, slightly sweet and fruity, again with a great hop bill emphasizing peach. Discreet but sufficient bitterness. 100912

Bomber. Fresh hoppy nose, orange, peach, light lychee, a bit of caramel. Pretty orange-amber color wit a fine head. Very hoppy flavor—very bitter—lots of citrus, tartness coming from hops, orange and grapefruit. Nice hop showcase.

Bottle: Poured an amber color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of pine and resin hops with light dry caramel malt base. Taste is also a mix between some resin and pine hoppy notes with some dry caramel malt. Body is about average with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Well brewed and quite enjoyable with pretty good hops punch for an APA.

Bottle from GBBF 2012, drunk at home. Now the problem with this beer is that I am trying to cook at the same time. And I’m sat at my table with the laptop but the glass with the beer in it is still on the kitchen worktop. So I have a laptop, but no beer. Right time to do something about this. I’m now going to the kitchen to drink the beer and cook and then I shall come back and rate it. Hold on a minute, I’ll be right back...... Right it’s a very good pale ale. I like the hops. Sweetish like a lot of these American beers. Yes a smooth mouthfeel, bitterness on finish. Lots of pine resin and grapefruit and really rather good I thought. Yep I’d happily have this most days.

Bomber from Brewforia. Release #11. Pours hazy copper with a creamy near-white head. Aromas of resin and light cat pee over a roast caramel backbone. Near full bodied. Flavor is lots of hop - mostly resin - with some citrus and floral. Perhaps batch 11 is long in the tooth, because this is not "fresh and lush". But it’s hoppy and tasty. Very hoppy compared to many pale ales.

Cask version at Winking Lizard’s 4th Annual Real Ale Fest (03/24/12): The beer is a cloudy copper color with a thin off-white head that dissipates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malt and hops. Medium body with flavors of floral hops, sweet malt and caramel. The finish is resiny hops up front with a malty aftertaste. Above average overall.

Draft at Birreria Paradiso. Glowing unfiltered orange red. Thin beige head. Rather straightforward with a solid hop character. Toasty malt balance. Soapy, dry hop bitterness. Quality, but a rather one-dimensional APA.
