Big on late-hopped flavor, easy on bitterness, our American Pale Ale has a heaping portion of Columbus and Citra hops added after it leaves the brewhouse. Share this refreshing gas station beer with your nearest companion.

On draught:
Dark gold/light amber color with a thin white head. Some retention, some lacing, but not much. Very few carbonation bubbles visible.
Aroma is citrus and hops, but mostly citrus.
Taste is mainly hops with some citrus. Not very bitter at all. The hoppy bite is pleasant, although it lingers a bit too long for me.
Feel is quite light. Carbonation is a bit low.
Overall, not bad. Low ABV and light body make it great for a session or a long meal.

Poured from a can into a tulip glass. Clear yellow color with a white head and good lacing. Citrus smell and taste. This beer has a nice hoppy bite that makes it go well with food.

Appearance:
Dark gold, hazy. Moderate-high carbonation rising. Thick rocky head that disappear slowly, leaves a very nice lacing.
Aroma:
Lots of citrus hops, tangerine, some grapefruit, a little bready.
Taste/Finish/Body:
Medium hop bitterness, citrus, tangerine, floral, just a hint of herbal. Some malt backbone, slight caramel. Finish crisp and dry. Light-medium bodied, crisp, slight juicy, refreshing, super drinkable.
Overall:
It's very good Pale Ale, very sessionable!

Pours a clear light amber color. Head is white with little retention and lacing.
The nose is earthy with tropical like hops notes and a bit of grains in the back.
The taste is light. There is a mild hop bitterness to it but its pretty simple. Not much complexity.
Mouth feel is very clean with moderate carbonation. Light an crisp.

Hoppy and citrus. Grande beer. Great round taste, not sharp and not to hoppy. Although the hops stick with you .
