Look: It pours golden with some clouding and a white head. Head retention is very good.
Smell: It has a spicy nose up front with some bread malts. It has a combination of spice and stone fruit up front.
Taste: There are some bread elements and light caramel in the background. There are some light cherry notes as well.
Feel: It has a medium body with a moderate bitter finish.
Overall, a nice drinking pale ale with a fairly good balance between the hops and malts.

Poured from 12oz can into a dimpled mug. No date on the can that I can see.
Appearance: light golden hue with a bit of haze and a finger of frothy ivory foam atop.
Smell: mildly sweet and malty with a bit of grassy hoppiness and kind of a funky thing going on. I'm not entirely sure the funk works, but it's kinda interesting.
Taste: less of a funk than the aroma; a toasty malt and grassy/floral hops give kind of a classy "soapy" English pale ale flavor. It's rather on the bitter side of the spectrum.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.
Overall: to me, this is a bit more of an English style pale ale than an American one, but overall it's not a bad beer.
