English Pale Ale brewed with beachwood smoked malt and English hops which work in harmony to throw a unique twist on a classic style. Subtle, almost sweet, smokiness and sharp bitterness make this brew an outdoor favorite.

Beautifully glowing yet chill hazy amber-orange with a khaki foam head of moderate height.

A pleasant level of a toasty sort of smoke that's lightly woody is bolstered by a resinous bitterness that reminds me a little of an OG East Coast IPA.

It's uniquely drinkable and bitter for the style, especially stateside.

I'm so torn between rating the taste between a 4.25 and a 4.5. Per style its got an earthy bitterness that im not digging off the bat. But this style is a style I'm emphatic about.

The look is pretty "meh". Turbid as brown sewer water if im honest. Yeah 3.75 might be generous but im not going to drag down a good beer excessively when all else checks out.

Smell is indeed wood smoke. Very heavy on the nose and great. Campfire esque smoke indeed. It smells like straight good times at camp.

Again the taste is very smokey but heavily hopped with very old school tasting hops. I dont think I dislike their presence, I think im just a little surprised and not sure how to react to what im tasting.

Feel is fine/normal/whatever. It does taste a touch oily. That's not a plus or minus, only an observation.

Overall. I think i paid $16 for four 16oz cans. It may be cheaper from the brewery - I plan to grab another 4 pack so maybe I'll swing by them to pick up directly. But at $3 per / 12 oz this is a pretty value for the flavor it packs.
