A wonderfully balanced true pale ale. Cascade, Tomahawk, and Amarillo hops create a citrusy aroma with a smooth, crisp finish. A subdued malt character nicely complements the hop complexity and produces an orangey amber hue.

Bottle as shown. Pours a copper with a medium creamy white head that leaves behind decent spotty lacing along the glass. The aroma is a bready malt with citrus and pine. Thin mouthfeel and a bit watery on the palate. The taste is wheat grass with citrus and light malt. Not much going on with this pale ale.

Overall Impression: Picked a Dundee mixed pack a while back, and this was in there, I recall that it was a decent Pale, but nothing too memorable...

Bottle. Pours an amber with a small and dense head. Aromas are weak... a bit of apple juice, some caramel and a little grassy hops is about all I’m coming up with. Flavor has a little more zing to it, but still is a little boring. Caramel flavored malt and hops balance well. Lawnmower beer.

I was shocked to find this in Yamaya in Kyoto for a cool ¥198! All the way from Rochester! A very well balanced, light pale ale with a good dose of both caramel malt and hops. Nothing to walk a mile for, but a good session beer and great value. I also like to support High Falls, one of the last remaining old independents (Genesee) that is mostly owned by its employees now.

Bottle. A clear, golden beer with a small, creamy beige head. Hoppy nose with pine, tending towards fluor, as well as a full maltyness. Malty and sweet flavor with beef-stock notes and a good dash of piney hops to balance to, rather than overpowering it as I more or less expected. Full to medium body and a long, piney finish. A beer on the hoppy side, but more balanced than many APA’s, and quite low on bitterness. Easy to drink and quenching. (080412)
