Nothing earth-shattering going on here. Very nice amber color and medium head, but the flavor was a little on the bland side, there was very little hops to keep it interesting throughout.

Re-rate from a better sampling. (Cincinnati brewed bottle). Dark reddish color, with amber tinge, full head. Nice looking beer. English ale yeast fruitiness in aroma with moderate earthiness and caramel malt notes (Maris Otter?). Well balanced flavor, with full nutty caramel malts and nice backing bitterness. Low on hop flavors. Smooth. Well done pale ale and quite drinkable.
