On tap at West Kill Brewing in West Kill, NY.
This one pours a light orange-amber color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like marijuana, grassy hops, flowers, cedar, and some light maltiness.
This is definitely an older school take on an American Pale Ale – like a slightly less successful Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. It’s pleasantly soft, with a citrusy and resinous hop character, and a strong but tasty maltiness.
This is light bodied, very drinkable, and very smooth and pleasantly bitter on the finish.
This is a nice throwback take on an early American pale ale – I really enjoyed it.

Tried it today at the brewery.
Disappointing right from the pour.
A dark pale that a friend said looked like wine.
No frothy foamy head. None at all.
Barely any carbonation.
Zero Aroma, and I literally put my nose into the glass.
Taste was bland. Wholly uninspiring.
Not a good start. My first beer for my first time at this brewery.
My friend's hazy ipa-dont feed the bears-was fantastic. Their other pale - earn your keep- was only available in cans to go. Grabbed a 4 pk (based on BA reviews ) and glad I did. Outstanding! (I rated it a 4.67).
Dunno what happened with this Pale Ale...bad batch? Bad lines? I'm in no rush to return to this Thrush.
