I think this may actually be a lager... all kidding aside...

A - pale, pale yellow with a fizzy white head

S - nothing to speak of; no malt, can't find the American hops I was expecting

T - More of the same, just kind of a light, fizzy ale

M - Very light, not much to note

D - As drinkable as water and damn near close to it!

This was served on draft at the Doubletree Hotel in Johnson City, TN. It was a bit pricey at $5 for a pint, but it was tasty.

Comes to the bar in the pint glass a hazy, citrusy amber color with a nice, cottonwood head. Decent amount of lacing.

The waitress didnt know what the beer was. She gave me a sample and I guessed IPA. According to the site, it is an APA, so I was pretty close. This one has some hop bite and flavor to it; typically more than in most APA. The maltiness showned as well but there was a bit of roastiness. Overall, this was a nice beer.

Medium bodied with a slightly oily feel. I really enjoyed this one. A perfect house brew. Well done!

The aroma is quite hoppy and almost like an IPA. It has both grassy and citrus type hops. The malt is also there to balance the aroma. The appearance is golden and amber with a nice head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. This is a very good pale ale that is true to the style.
