This is a rather pleasant well rounded beer. It is a deep amber-copper color. A nice foamy head is created. The smell is nice, with hints of malt and hops to be found within; a nice mixture of malt and hops. The taste is enjoyable, a real treat. This is a nice and smooth pale ale. Enjoy!.

Super foamy pour...clear dark copper color, very foamy head. Faint grainy aroma, kind of flat-ish grain like malty taste. Thin mouthfeel. Uninspiring.

Appearance: Copper to dark amber with a white frothy head and inch thick.
Aroma: Wisps of grape, honey, light citrus hop, grainy malt.
Taste: Grapefruit notes in the begining and some piney bits as well. Hop bite on the palate. Caramel malts with good bready texture with some sweetness in the end.
Notes: Good drinking beer start to finish. Cheers.

Pours a brilliant copper color with a huge head. It's aroma starts malty with a hint of citrus. The taste is semi-malty but other wise just plain bad. Maybe a bit medicinal but very stale tasting. The mouthfeel is light. Paper City Holyoke Dam Ale is a bad beer, not recommended!
