A hazed orange pale ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, nice floral hops, smooth herbal qualities, grassy. In mouth, a smooth ale with nice pinhey hops, very British and dignified. Cask at Get Real NY, March 19, 2011, as FreshChester Pale Ale.

On tap. Poured a clear gold with an orange hue and a white head that dissipated slowly to the edges. Aroma had a slight citrus note with some pine and a bit of a grain backing. Flavor started with slight citrus and had a resin note but finished with a grain backing.

6th August 2010. GBBF.
Presented as ’Freshchester Pale Ale’. Cloudy orange beer with a residual suddy white head. Lovely fresh orange - slightly tangy. Semi dry finish. Not much else going on but what there is is great!

As Captain Lawrence Freschester Pale Ale
Aroma: Citrusy hops, caramel, lemon, spice, and pine
Appearance: Golden-amber color with a small head
Flavor: Balanced, leaning hoppy, citrus/pine hops, caramel malts
Palate: Medium bodied, smooth, somewhat creamy, and clean feeling
Overall Impression: Overall, this is very much on style for a pale ale. Nicely made and highly drinkable, this is a good solid beer. While it won't blow anyone away, I don't have many complaints, it is a well-done example of the style.

On tap at Nags Head in Huntington NY. Pours a translucent, amber brown with a creamy white head that laced well. Aroma is well balanaced between citrus hops and biscuit malts. Medium bodied, wet finish. Flavor was sweet caramel, crackers, biscuits, doughy, with citrus, lemons, pine, and just a little vegetal.
