Notes:
Pale Ale
16oz Can
5.5% ABV
Appearance:
Pours a cloudy golden orange…very nice color…sediment floating all about…a
thin layer of head formed but didn’t last long…some bubble action happening in
the middle…(3/5)
Smell: Tons of
pale malts…I do smell the orange peel zest but it’s very mild…earthy, mild
citrus hops are very light…not overly aromatic…a fairly straight forward pale
ale…(3/5)
Taste: Tons of
fresh pale malts…very crisp flavor…there is a spiciness to it…a pretty straight
forward pale ale through out…earthy and citrus hops add some bitterness and definitely
play background (and balance) to all the malt flavor…the finish is really the
first and only introduction to the orange peel…bitterness in the after taste…(3.5/5)
Mouthfeel: Light
to medium body…lightly carbonated…a wet feel on the tongue…crisp, fresh and
refreshing…(3.5/5)
Overall: A
solid pale ale that’s good, but has nothing overly special about it…I wouldn’t
even say there’s something missing, what they went for, they achieved, it’s just
unfortunate mediocrity that was the goal…it is crisp and drinkable, so it’s worth
trying once, but i doubt this is anybody’s favorite brew…(3.25/5)
Score:
(3.30/5)
