Bottle

Appearance: Pours goldish amber with a white 1 finger head.

Smell: Corn, hops and some malt sweetness.

Taste: Pretty much matches up to the nose. The aftertaste is bittersweet, but very mild.

Mouthfeel: Good carbonation but not too thin.

Overall: Southern Tier is the pride of NY, and this beer is nothing less than I'd expect from them. Although nowhere near their best offering, it's very drinkable with above average flavor. There's a reason why this company is successful.

Drank in a bar in Altoona, Pennsylvania.

Decent beer. Not a lot to distinguish it from any other pale ale, in my opinion. Almost the definition of average. Looks like it should, smells like it should, lacks a bit in mouthfeel.

I'd drink it again if none of the other options were new or interesting.

Serving type: on-tap

bottle

A- Crystal clear light gold; very little head and almost no lacing

S- orange spice, small hint of bitter hops

T- Nice subtle hit of hoppy bitterness up front followed by a tasty toasted malt. very nice balance between the strong, yet not overpowering, hops and the toasted malts. eminently drinkable

M- light to medium bodied. just a touch of carbonation

O- I really like this beer. The hops and malts are really balanced well and taste wonderful.
