Bird Creek Anchorage Ale
Silver Gulch Brewing and Bottling Co.

Im posting this under the assumption that the original contributer mixed this up and this is the "Silver Gulch Bird Creek Old 55 pale ale" a APA with an abv of 5.2%

Had this in bottle at the Old "Birdhouse bar" the year before it burned down in Girdwood Ak. An experience by itself that cant be beat nor ever be equaled.

A: Poured a nice cooper-amber color with a frothy off white head that was moderately lasting.

S: The nose was dry and bitter with pine, dried malt and a nice dried fruitiness.

T: The initial flavor was nicely hopped with some dried pine and citrus bitterness against a dry toasted malting There was a nice dried fruitiness from the yeast with some light fresh woodiness which seemed right in place considering the locale. A nice lingering bitternss is found on the finish with some dried grapefruit and floral. The malt truly shines here in the palate.

M: medium full, with a nice carbonation presence brining out the woodsy and dried malt character of the beer on the tongue.

D: A nice dry malted pale with dried citrus and earthy woody flavors makes this a great product of its environment and one that shouldn't be missed.

Lighter in color than the Denali ale with a less robust character, this ale goes down easily from the tap with a crisp finish.
