look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3

Poured 12 oz. into my newcastle schooner glass.

A:Pours a light brownish orange color with a white small bubbled head. Also has a high number of small bubbles cleaning to the side to the glass.

S: Grainy, metallic, with hints of sweet toffee and caramel. Yup that is all I'm getting in the nose.

T: Starts off with a clean sweet flavor up front, then turns in to faint dirty, earthy hops, then finish harsh with a tongue beating of carbonation. All and all this is kinda weak, its better than any American macro but for English pale ale's not much going on in here.

M: At first I was going to say this one has a fuller mouthfeel but once the carbonation subsides it get a bit watered down. Plus the harshness of this beer really wears on the back of the palate and throat.

O: All and all this one wasn't terrible or great just an easy drinking EPA, that doesn't do much well or really do anything bad.

Pours brownish with creamy head that fades quickly. fairly bitter initial taste with honey aftertaste. medium to light weigh and I remember it being heavier. Not much to say about this brew other than its just ok but a solid beer to get if a bar has it on tap.

Serving type: on-tap

look: 3 | smell: 3 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 2.75

Poured into a shaker pint glass. Reviewing the American version, brewed in NY.

Look: Clear light amber/copper color. The cram colored head recedes to a thin film with light lacing, if any sticking to the glass.

Aroma: Muted malts, subdued caramel sweetness. Tea-like faint hops.

Taste: A bitter, tea-like hop note filters over muted caramel malts. Not a whole lot going on here.

Mouthfeel: Medium to light in weight. Somewhat carbonated.

Overall: Very bland. Was expecting more.
