Dullard yellow comes across with a 1/2" white head, appropriate carbonation with a mildly toasted sweet pale malt aroma. Hops absent.
Caramel malt flavors, thickness, consistency, rare balance achievement, not something to go after on this side of the pond if you ask me. A little bit of bitterness perhaps from the malt roasting.
Not much in the way of ingredients here. Made well if you want balance. Falls short if you like your pale ales with a hop edge in them.

Bottle from Brewforia. Nothing much to comment on here, pretty ho-hum beer. Very light on the malt and hops, overall kind of watery. Drinkable, but unmemorable.

Look: is a copperish Orange very clear. A tan head with lacing. Smell: little bit of malt some Orange lil piney. I can't nail which one but it is not overly complex. Taste: biscuit, some floral, some sweetness from malt, Orange, finishes with a mineral water taste. Feel: low to medium body it is not super dry, good lasting carbonation. Overall this is a super easy drinker plenty of assertive flavors would go well with a meal or by itself on a hot day.

Had on-tap at the Pizza Barn in Elko - which one regular described as the best pizza in town, and I do not disagree. Comes out of the tap a clear golden amber with a thick, fine-bubbled, pale golden-tan head. Aroma is malty but not strong.- but it is this brew’s only weak point. Crisp, malty flavor has a fruity undertone and a hint of woody hops - seriously tasty. Smooth, firm body is quite fizzy. Look for it!

I discovered this pale ale while working in the mines in Elko Nevada. It is very light and slightly grainy. The nose is slightly weak, but this is still the best beer I have found in Eastern Nevada. Overall an unexpected surprise found in Elko Nevada.

A dark yellow pour, average head, good carbonation. Aroma was sweet, very maltcentric.
More caramel in the taste, wouldn't know it from the color of the beer, but definitely the aroma and taste. Not much in terms of hops (none of their beers ever have) but some bitterness is there. Long boil I'm guessing. A challenging aftertaste of caramel and wood. Somewhat drinkable, but I wonder why this often costs $7-8 a 6 pack if there is relatively very little hops used.

A - Poured out a clear, golden-yellow color with little to no head. it left no lace.
S - It smelled of sweet caramel malt and grasses. A very mild citrus aroma.
T - It tasted of sweet caramel malt. A slight grassy hop bite. Really a malt forward pale ale.
M - It was crisp and sharp with a smooth finish. A light to medium-bodied pale ale.
D - This is an okay pale ale. Nothing special but is worth a try from a fascinating brewery.
