3.45/5  rDev -11.3%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.5

Appearance: Arrives with a murky honey color; very little head and just a smattering of lace

Smell: Bready malts dominate the aroma with just a little sensation of heat

Taste: Bready malts, up front, with some hop balance that arrives by mid-palate; the chipotle chile makes a very limited appearance after the swallow

Mouthfeel: Medium body with low to moderate carbonation

Drinkability: As a pale ale this is rather middle of the road, but the chipotle aspect was rather disappointing as it was not nearly pronounced enough

Serving type: on-tap
