Innovatively constructed, brewed in tradition, this hoppy pale ale is truly one for everyone. Designed with an unique blend of new age American Hops, this dependable treat brings forward notes of citrus and lemon grass. Light to medium in body it goes down smooth and easy, finishing crisp, with a kiss of fruity hops. Hold Steady and enjoy!

From the bottle, it pours a very slightly hazy amber color with a modest, reducing as you watch, white head. In the nose, A touch of hops in the nose, maybe some citrus. The mouth gets a lightly bitter malt flavor.

My old neighbor from Oswego gave me a bottle of this and unfortunately it was overprimed. It poured a hazy orangish with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had bitter hop notes. The taste was bitter leaning with pine presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with fizzy head. Overall its probably better off the tap than an overprimed bottle.

My favorite beer from Shipyard. Really hard to position an easy drinking APA (my fave style) but they did it.
a) Pours a hazy amber golden body lofting a short-lived, scant head. a touch of lace.
s) Aroma is citrusy, spicy, piney, and dominant orchard fruit. It's original, approachable, plentiful.
t) The fruit is creamy, whole peach and apple, cider with pine and never too sweet, lands the bitter see saw in a great place. If this came in cans I might make it my go-to as I like the flavor abundance with lower ABV,
f) Creamy, clean finish, great food beer. (basil and fingerlings and olive oil)
o) Steady is a great name for this beer that should be obvious - but is approachable, yet original. Everyone try it. Bravo.
