A solid pale ale... 4.5s across the board.
This beer doesn't knock my socks off, it's nothing to write home about, and won't go into the books and flat-out awesome. So why the 4.5s? Because I'm basing this on style. This is a solid representation of the style. It's an honest, easy to quaff, pale ale. It looks like it should, smells like beer, tastes like a pale ale (not to fruity, not too bitter), and has just the right feel.

I got mine in a trade, but if it were mid-summer I'd definitely try to get more.

Draft at the brewpub, quick review from written notes.
Pale golden orange with visible carbonation. Spotty lacing around the edges.
Smells like C hops and caramel malt. Slightly sweet.
Taste is bland and slightly bitter. Something is a little off, hard to pinpoint exactly.
Feels a little off kilter as well. Slightly watery, lingering dry bitrerness.
Overall not one of the better ones of their lineup.

Pours a hazy, golden color. 1/2 inch head of a white color. Good retention and good lacing. Smells of pale malt, slight sugar, hint of grass, slight yeast, and slight hops. Fits the style of an American Pale Ale. Mouth feel is sharp and crisp, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of strong pale malt, slight sweet malt, slight grass, slight yeast, and a hint of hops. Overall, very muted in body and aroma, but a decent blend.

Poured from 12oz bottle into a clear mug.

Appearance: moderately cloudy yellow-gold hue with a finger of white foam atop. Not too bad.

Smell: rather bready aroma with a light hint of fruity hops. The aroma is a bit on the mild side, but I find the fruitiness quite enticing.

Taste: bready, like the aroma, with a tropical fruitiness under the malt elements. It's good, but I would love it if the fruity hops could shine more.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a big carbonation and creaminess. Really fantastic for a pale ale.

Overall: this is a pretty tasty and drinkable beer, but just a little more strength in the hops would do wonders.

Not a particularly strong aroma to it. It's when you take a sip that you find out why, with a surprising amount wheat to it and a little bit of floral. Not what I was expecting, but good.
