What Our Editors Thought

Classic nose: orange, forest, toasted bread, light caramel. The sip follows the classic theme with an almost spongy orange sweetness and forest-hop bitterness. Bitterness is a touch rough and ragged but finishes convincingly.

What Our Panel Thought

Fairly clear with a very robust head. Sweet biscuit-malt nose gives way to subtle but dank hops. Sweet caramel-malty flavor with firm bitterness and nice, light pine-resin hop flavor with sweet orange notes. Easy to drink.

What the Brewers Say

Our pale ale has a big, fruity hop aroma with a taste that follows suit. A subtle and balanced malt character creates a canvas for the hops to shine.
