Independence Day Ale
Auburn Alehouse Brewery & Restaurant

The beer pours out a light golden color with a tinge of haze and 1 finger of white head----------- the aromas are of pine, dank weed, peach, grapefruit, floral notes and sweet malt-------------- the flavors are of pine, light pineapple, citrus zest and pith, the beer has a thin mouthfeel with an assertive bitterness on the finish----------- overall this beer was exceptional - auburn ale house is a very underrated brewery in my opinion there beers are always top notch, this one was no exception what a great pale ale with lots of pine, citrus and tropical fruit

Bottle from 05/31/17 into a tulip glass. Bright golden with 2 fingers of variable density white head with minimal retention and left streaked lacing. Nose is mostly grassy. Taste follows the nose with a bit of earthiness, finishes with mild bitterness that lingers a bit. Thinner bodied with medium carbonation, a little bit lively on the tongue.

An OK APA that's very forgettable.

 

Pours a half finger of head on a slightly hazy light straw colored body.
The aroma is lemon with some musty grapefruit.
The taste has moderate grapefruit bitterness, a little metallic in the middle, and finishes with a touch of sweetness.
The texture is crisp with a little fizz.
It's a little too "grapefruit" bitter for me. But fine nonetheless.

 

 

 

 

Clear pale straw colour with a moderate white head. Fair head retention.

Mild grapefruit aroma. No malt. Just some hops.

Crisp, bitterness with some hop character in the form of mild grapefruit flavour. Clean and simple.

Medium light body with moderately high carbonation.

Good, straightforward and simple hoppy pale ale. Refreshing.
