Poured into a pint glass.

A hazy orange-amber.

Smells of biscuit and cereal malts. Floral and citrusy hops. A slightly stronger hop profile than most english style pale ales I've encountered - I enjoy that.

Taste follows the aroma. Bitters linger for a while - not necessarily unpleasant, just notable.

My favorite part about this beer is the mouthfeel - creamy and full. Not quite chewy but definitely not modest for a pa.

This is an interesting brew. Curious as to how they got the feel of it without amping up the body.

Pours crystal clear with a finger of egg white head. Nice caramel / orangish hue. Faint to no hops in the nose but hints of straw, biscuit, and a touch of sweetness. I really like the mouthfeel of this beer, upper end of medium body. Slight earthy hops present in the taste with nice caramel and toasty malt character. Overall this is a very pleasant beer that is well made. My enjoyment was after a particularly stressful day and it went down well in the adirondack chair on the front lawn.
