12oz bottle poured into a pint glass. Bottle says an English-style Amber Ale, BA says its an APA. Bottle says its from Montana and Colorado, its actually a beer marketing company from California. Sheesh!
Pours a clear amber with a frothy head. Decent retention as well as some lacing as it drinks.
Smell is rather muted though I do get caramel maltiness.
Taste is much the same. Not a very complex beer, mostly the sweetish toffee/caramel. No really notable hops either, though there is a good bitterness in the finish.
Mouthfeel is kind of watery, light-bodied.
Drinkability is pretty good, but I don't like this beer enough to have to many.

Kinda weird they have the same name for two different (allegedly) beers. A pale ale and a red ale. Ok.
This one is darker than pale, lighter than red. Bland taste, again, malt bigger than pale, but lesser than red. Lots of wood, some bitterness, not a lot of hop flavor. It is what it is.
