This hybrid ale is a part Hoppy American Pale Ale and part Belgian Golden Ale. Even the hops in this ale are hybrids. Part American and part European, lending a nice mix of floral, spice, and fruity flavors and aromas. Copper in color, this ale is simple and straight forward yet still has a subtle complexity. Light, clean, and refreshing, this ale weighs in at 6% alcohol.

On tap at Newhall Refinery in Newhall, CA.

Pours a hazy golden-orange with a foamy tan head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Foamy rings of lace line the glass on the drink down. Smell is of grain, earth, spice, yeast, and slight chalk aromas. Taste is much the same with earth, spice, dried citrus peel, and yeast flavors on the finish. There is a medium amount of hop and spice bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer that is tasty, but it is much more bitter than I was expecting.

Serving type: on tap.
