6 dollar 6pack from the brewery. Foamy off-white head on top of a darker than to style dulled orange body. With the vanilla extract, pretty much cheating. Cheesy candy ice cream vanilla dominates. No subtlety, no finesse. Drinkable, straight up artificial vanilla cream soda feel. Pretty weak, loveless, sloppy effort from Ale Asylum.

Yellow body with white head. Bready aroma. Taste was almost all malt with a little spice in the finish.

Hazy pale orange body. Thin fast dissipating head. Citrus aroma. Tangerine hop taste with a long tangerine finish.

12 ounce can, 6/27/20. Hazy and near murky orange, large foamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of grapefruit, orange, resin, pale malt. Taste is grapefruit, tropical fruit, caramel malt. Medium bodied. Lingering bitterness. Kinda old school with a new school twist. Well balanced. Overall... I like.

12 ounce can from Ridgeview Liquors, 6/25/20. Hazy amber, thin creamy off-white head, decent retention. Aroma of orange and citrus, pale malt. Taste is grapefruit, orange, lime, pale malt, a bit of pepper. Thin-medium bodied. Some melon and green pepper way in the bck end. Overall kinda simple but pretty solid.

12oz can from the brewery. Unfiltered orange-tan body. Perhaps a touch of wheat or something in there to justify it being called a Hazy Pale. Overall kind of bland and lacking, but for 1 dollar a can pretty reasonable. Just seems like old school brew sensibilities half-assedly attempting a new school style, finishing sloppily. Mild peach grapefruit citrus finish, but that is reaching. Pretty bland overall.

12oz can. Canned the day before I drank it. Nice. Chill haze yellow body. Has some of that rustic old school noble hop, factory tone. Kind of grainy, not sure if they added corn or what is going on. More depth than American macro adjunct lager, but in the same realm. Drinkable, fresh, but also seems a little young for a Pils.

12oz can....but I've had it on tap at the old brewery, in 12 bottles ect over the years. At 9.2%, it is quite big for the style, really packs a punch. The mouthfeel is all American, no champagne or pillowy carbonation. Flavors are solid, deep caramel and red fruit. Sweet candi sugar finish. Good.

12oz can. Another really cheesy wannabe hazy from Ale Asylum. Whereas the Good City Cascade version just nailed it, this is resinous and murky. I guess they just added some wheat or oats to it and that was that. Has that old school oily hop tone. Drinkable, but sort of an embarrassing beer.
