A beer that would make the English jealous! This true English Pale Ale is rich and fruity, yet finishes crisp. You'll love the copper amber color and medium body.

Appearance - 3.5
Nice off white head, with an amber-copper coloured body. Light amounts of carbonation bubble up as the carbonation dwindles down to just a line around the glass.
Aroma - 3.5
malty with a hint of caramel first to my nose, with a slight hint of citrus.
Mouthfeel - 3.0
Lighter feeling in the mouth, a medium amount of carbonation to the tongue.
Taste - 3.0
Citrus hops with a hint of malt, ending in a floral hop bitterness.
Overall - 3.0
An alright pale ale. Definitely not the best I've tried even though they generally aren't my type, but definitely worth my money to try.

It pours about 1 finger of white head that sticks around for a decent amount of time. It leaves pretty good lacing on the inside of the glass. It has a clear copper color, with lots of carbonation bubbles rushing towards the top.
Aroma - 3.0
Citrus hops, and sweet caramel malts in the aroma.
Mouthfeel - 3.5
It's a light-medium bodied beer with a medium amount of carbonation.
Taste - 3.0
The sweet malts hit up first, followed by some citrus hops and ending with some slightly bitter floral hops.
Overall - 3.5
It's a good session beer, but a forgettable brew. I'd gladly drink it again, but wouldn't actively seek it out. There just isn't enough about the beer to make it stand out among the rest.
