Falconer Flight hops give off a Grapefruit nose. Light orange hue from the malt makes this a balanced and crushable beer for the entire day.

7/17/24 - $5 16 oz draft at The Beer Temple. 5% ABV Pale Ale.
Appearance: 16 oz pour into an old school short pilsner type glass. Steady heavy carbonation, bright white creamy head with beautiful cover over the tan golden pour. Excellent presentation. 4.5
Aroma: Nice citrus backed by pine and lemongrass. Medium plus strength, higher in enjoyment. 4.25
Taste: Battle flavor Royal between a sweet citrus and bitter pine. Different sips warrant different lead, would say citrus wins by a half a length. Personnel preference pine wins, but well crafted. 4.0
Mouthfeel: Carbonation strong, hard at times for my personal aversion, gives light gentle prickly depth to the light body. Drinks at ABV, slight sweet lead, citrus pine finish. 3.5
Overall: This, really looks great, drinks solid, is a modern take on SNPA, carbonation the only draw back. Glad I finally had a shot at this regular handle here, great way to start a beer outing at The Beer Temple. 4.25

Look is totally hazy, bro. I smell peach and mango and hop stink. This is well carbonated and bitter, with lots of mango and orange citrus hops. We got a winner here

Love this beer. I always have a six pack ready.
Very drinkable and just simply an easy going pale. Great in a full aperture can.

Had Cozmo Pale Ale poured from 12-oz. can, bottom stamped "PKG: 07/16/21" and "DB: 11/12/21," gift from Chicago buddy, into tulip pint.
Pours bright gold, with clarity and 1-finger-plus of dimpled, creamy off-white head, with excellent retention, pulling some chunky lace down the glass. Aroma of lots of sweet citrus and some grassy hops off pour, with citrus continuing, then turning tarter with perhaps some berry aromas as warms. Begins all carbonation and dry bite, then a little sweet malt and a bit of (ill-defined) fruit lead into a crisp but slick finish.
An uncomplicated Pale for traditionalists, akin to a classic dry, sessionable English Pale Ale.

Can. Opaque orange. Medium frothy head.
Fresh orange juice aroma. Grapefruit and pine present.
Earthy version of the bouquet when tasted. Not much bitter flavour.
Mid range body and carbonation.
Straightforward APA.

Pours a slightly hazy, straw orange with a thin, white head and plenty of carbonation.
Tons of citris hops in the smell. Tangerine, grapefruit as well as melon.
Wonderful balance of fresh, citrus hops and malt. Tangerine, grapefruit and melon. Slight dankness. Slight onion and garlic.
Nice, crisp APA that feels like a session pale ale.
A wonderful pale ale from Noon Whistle that I rather enjoy.

This beer is surprisingly good!
It’s easy to drink without being weak or sessioned out. Pale ale that goes down easy. It’s noon somewhere, right??
