A single-hopped, single-batch, summer quencher brewed exclusively for BIKEFEST!, Bike Pittsburghs week-plus celebration of all things bicycling. Keep an eye on www.Bike-Pgh.org for more info about the summer brewery ride and more about FreeRide! the guys who made those cool tap handles out of salvaged bike parts. Available in July and August, or as long as it lasts (maybe a little earlier and later next year?)

A - When it poured a hazy amber I assumed it was another beer but this is the most non pale I ever seen! Nice half inch of foamy head.
S - Smells of mostly malts of bread but I can smell a nice floral hop base.
T - Wow I thought it was my last beer but this beer has hop bite! Not as much as I wanted but still enjoyable almost in terms of "Dales Pale Ale" only less ABV. Wow tasty.
M - light to medium pint went pretty quick.
Overall I can't wait to taste this again. I was a big fan of the hop beer and to see this still very hoppy with less ABV is pretty sweet. Would drink again.

16 fl oz pull-tab can nabbed at the brewery for me by my friend Zed - thanks, bruv!
Dull hop profile. Obvious minerality. Shallow. Simple.

A forgettable pale ale. Sierra Nevada's expression of the style has more hop pungency and depth of flavour, plus it's cheaper.

"An American Pale Ale, crisp and hoppy with light malt sweetness, fruity esters, and very mild bitterness (in spite of being hopped four times)."

Classic gold color, not much of a head. Aroma is light cracker malt, very light floral hops. Taste is fine, pretty standard but nothing is off - just don’t pop. Mild malt biscuit, grassy hop, moderate bitterness on the finish. Run of the mill but fine on a summer day.

Pours gold. Foamy, white, short head that fades fast.
Smells citrus, malt, grassy, floral.
Tastes citrus, lemon, light pale malt and floral hints. Followed by citrus peel and light grassy hints. Medium light body and fizzy medium carbonation.
