Virginia

4.09/5  rDev +5.7%
look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

On tap: 1/9/13

Appearance: Golden color with cloudiness. Fluffy white head. Moderate lacing.

Smell: Knowing this is an oatmeal pale ale you can definitely smell it in there, but its more subdued compared to the typical pale ale smells of citrus and the piney hops.

Taste: Ok here is where the oatmeal comes into play. It definitely adds something a little different to the taste while still being very recognizable to the style.

Mouthfeel: Light and crisp with a dry finish.

Overall: Interesting take on the pale ale. I can imagine them turning this into a regular release because I can see a lot of people liking this one.

Serving type: on-tap
