Draught at Hop Devil, NYC, as Captain Lawrence Freschester Pale Ale
Muddy golden color; creamy head. The aroma shows some nice hops with fruitness. Smooth malty taste, with a good hopping, but unfortunately there is a light impression of stale beer; maybe the keg has been open too long.

Tap at Shoreline Bev, poured into 10 oz take home glass. Getting the bottom of the keg again, got a whole lot of sediment, I mean a lot. When I finally let it settle, I had about 3/4 of an inch. That being said its very murky for Pale Ale (I know its the bottom of the keg). But otherwise an orang-y golden color and absolutely no clarity. Aroma is very present - a nice hop aroma, all over but not over the top. Definitely west coast inspired but with an East coast sensibility. Tropical fruits, mainly I would say. Taste is subdued, while its hoppy its not getting in the way of the subtle malt aspects. Finishes with low bitterness and a hoppy faint fruity aftertaste. Carbonation is slightly subdued.

Tap at Barcade - a solid, full-bodied, hop-heavy pale ale that could easily pass for an IPA - full cascades in the aroma and flavor - quite earthy throughout - slight buttery sweetness to balance out the rough edges - really nice.
