We are from the city that invented the skyscraper. We constructed our Urban Pale Ale on a balanced malt backbone, so the citrus hop aroma and crisp flavor can stand tall.

Bottle at home. Aroma of grainy malt, hint of fruits, some floral notes, hint of hops. Flavour is moderate bitterness. Too restrained and tame, both aroma and flavour. Drinkable but disappointing.

27/III/16 - 12Fl. Oz. bottle from Albert Heijn (Gent) @ home - BB: 2/VIII/16 (2016-296) Thanks to Erwin for the bottle!

Clear copper orange beer, creamy off-white head, pretty stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: pretty fruity, oranges, very malty, sweet grains, caramel, hint of tropical fruits. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very malty, lots of grains, pretty bitter, bit metallic. Aftertaste: dry bitterness, metallic, little bit of citrus.

Bottle from Albert Heijn. Clear orange colour, white foam disappears quickly. Medium carbonation. Nose of grapefruit and caramel. Bitter finish. Not very well balanced (on the sweet side) but easy drinkable. Ok.

Bottle on Celebrity Millennium. Smooth malty soft beginning. Hints of floral hops with a nice floral bitterness. Easy to drink, floral smooth bitter in the end. Nice.

Amber colored, clear, small white head, not too lasting. Aroma is of caramel malt, some orange candy, bit citrus. Taste is medium sweet caramel malt, orange candy, fruity, some low citrus aroma, low+ grassy bitterness, bittersweet finish, cloying sticky caramel aftertaste. Medium bodied, soft carbonation.

What the fudge, Goose Island... Clear orange pour, smells of sweet boiled malts, tastes as the worst pale ale I have ever tried: boiled corn, caramel sweetness and... that’s about it. No hop profile, no bitterness, no flavour of any kind except the sweetness.

Verizon Center, DC can: pours copper with a white head. Taste is attenuated hops and a crappy malt aroma. Taste is lightly bitter with an almost sour. I was not impressed. This your C game.

355 ml. bottle from Albert Heijn. (Still, astonished by the fact that I can get USA beers from the supermarket, never thought that this would ever happen). BBF 01/2016. Near clear touch darker orange, small off-white head. Nose is weird, insecticide bitter, floral, herbal with butterscotch, butter, orange peel,… mmh. Taste is more agreeable, sparkling butterscotch, butter herbal, insecticide, orange peel, grains, honey, chemical, chemical hop oil,… Weird, chemical, buttery, strange hop taste, you can drink it but it is really not what it should be, not too crazy about this one. Too bad considering just how phenomenal some of the beers that these guys make. You would think that they would have a better standard offering.
