Bought for only $4.99 at HEB, however at HEB's Central Market this costs $6.99. Great job sticking it to the uninformed consumers. The color is a light shade of copper with plenty of tiny bubbles for carbonation. The head is a nice size and creamy. The aroma of a moderate strength and consists of lemony hop smell. The taste is also very citrusy, but is accompanied by a nice malt body. The label describes this has an English style pale ale, but the hops are too strong for that to be true. Strangley enough the bottom of the sixer describes Trademark more like an IPA. Overall this isn't a mindblowing APA, but solid all-around and well worth $4.99.

Poured from a bottle into a tulip.

Pours slightly chill-hazed honey-gold with limited head but very solid lacing that hangs around throughout.

Aromas of pale honey-kissed malt and floral/grassy hops. Decent but subdued.

Pale grains and malts on the tip of the tongue with a little bit of honey sweetness. Grainy lemony tartness in midstream. Very mild grassy hop notes at the finish. A little skunky in the background.

Decent mouthfeel, but a little slick and flat overall.

It checks the boxes for the style. It's well balanced from a malt/sour/bitter standpoint. And yet it's really weird and clashy.

On-Tap 12oz. (The Ale House)

Pours a slightly cloudy amber color, nice carbonation with a nice one-finger creamy off-white head, which leaves some nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is slightly hoppy, with a nice malt note. The taste is hoppy/malty. Medium body, with a nice dry/bitter finish. Overall a tasty brew.
