Our American pale ale is a crisp, hoppy beer filled with fruity overtones and dash of sweet malt flavor. American hops lend this beer a citrus-like taste that is very refreshing.

12 oz. bottle thanks to queenholly. Slightly hazy yellow color with mall white head that vanished slowly. Nose and flavor of a traditional APA, some bread malt, lemon, light grassy and fruity hops in the finish. Very light and easy to drink.

bottle - Pours orange with a moderate head and a mild citrus hops aroma. The flavor is moderately hoppy with some caramel malts. It’s at most medium bodied and tending toward the thin side. Crisp, smooth, and easy to drink, it’s alright, but there are far more flavorful and overall better pale ales out there.

A large, off-white head forms over this hazy, orange brew. Light malt in the aroma with some flowery perfumy hops. Slightly sweet with a bit of sourness in the finish. Dry palate.

Bottle. Light pineapple/orange hops aroma. Orange amber color with small head. Light malt and pineapple hops flavor - on the watery side. Nice flavor but on the weak side.

Sweet citrus predominates the aroma. Clear copper color with thin white head. The flavor is sweet to start - orange mostly - and then turns slightly bitter. Not near as hoppy as many APAs. The finish was slightly sour and filled more with malt than hop. Medium body and clean finish.

Draft. Let me start off by saying that I sampled several beers from this brewer over the past weekend... and all of them taste the same (in a way). There’s an underlying burnt-rice flavor to all of their beers that I just can’t get past. Anyway, brownish with a small head. Malty nose, not overly hoppy. Flavor is burnt rice and malts... many more malts than hops, and this is not what i look for in a pale ale.

Hazy orange/amber body, thin off-white head. Piney hops aroma which was admittedly difficult to detect. Flavor was likewise standard APA fare with pine and grapefruit rind mingling with sweet biscuity malts. Rather thin-bodied, bitter finish. Probably follows the generic APA recipe 1000 American brewers apparently have stashed away in their offices.

Nicely hopped with good citric hop notes. Very well balanced with a nice light bronze color.
