Cascade, Centennial and Simcoe! Nice roasted and crystal malts blended together with north american hops. Good body and delicate malt backbone with a neutral yeast fermentation. Cereals and hoppy flavours are evenly balanced in this original american amber ale.

Draught in Grand Canal. Amber orange with a medium head. Aroma of hoppy caramel. Flavour is chewy caramel, light bitter fruit hop, lingering bitter palate. Long finish.

Amber, clear, bubbly white head, good lacing
Aroma of soft herbal hops, some soft sweet caramel
Taste of fairly bitter zest, some bitter herbal hops, soft liight sweet caramel malts, not too much malt
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, bitter and sweet well balanced. Finish has a bit more herbal hops in the tail
Overall - One of the better pale ales they've done, well balanced, not over stuffed
