A - Slightly opaque golden color with a white head. Scattered lacing.

S - Earthy toasted malt aroma with a touch of flowery hops. Some buttery, caramel sweetness is present as well.

T - Grainy and bready malt up front, but this one is suprisingly bitter. Some citrus hops hit you first, and then fade into nice, floral notes with some fruitiness at the finish. Very earthy, balanced flavor.

M - Body is fairly light with an oily slickness on the tongue. Carbonation is moderate but goes away quickly as the beer sits.

D - Very drinkable and refreshing. This is one that I could put away several pints of.

Poured the second half of a bottle into a collins glass.

Clear amber body with jonquil and gold highlights and a thin white surface slick.

Medium hop aroma in the nose, suggesting English noble varieties with hints of pepper and hay. Crackery malt base is to the front as well. I think I lucked out and got a bottle free of light-stricken-skunk.

Soft, faintly sulfur-y palate entry with dry biscuity malt cleansing the palate and offsetting the clean moderate bitterness from hops which adds a zesty quality, though not a lot of additional flavors (this isn't an APA after all). Very dry, earthy, mineral-laden suggests river stones.

Light-bodied, but not thin - low but sufficient carbonation.

A distinguished yet simple English pale ale - not as good as a proper cask offering, I'm pleased to pick this up when I'm in the mood for the style.
