DOGFISH HEAD SHELTER PALE ALE
(ERIE) MAD ANTHONY’S ALE
GREAT DIVIDE DENVER PALE ALE
HIDDEN RIVER PALE ALE
KONA FIRE ROCK PALE ALE
Deep orange-hued fluffy-headed Hawaiian pours like light whiskey as sharp mineral-grained grapefruit-orange bitterness lingers through resilient floral hop pep. Most likely fire brewed or wood chip scorched, since galvanizing smokiness informs burnt finish. Very strong and efficient; not for amateurs.
LONG TRAIL POLLENATOR ALE
MILL CITY BOARDING HOUSE ALE
Solid-bodied auburn-clouded pale ale with perplexing sour yeast, mildewed malt, and musty barley combination you’ll either love or hate. Juxtaposed with prune overtones, this original-minded brew will certainly garner varied opinions depending on one’s tolerance for oxidization. Brewery defunct: 2006.
(O’HANLON’S) ROYAL OAK PALE ALE
POINT CASCADE PALE ALE
(ELDRIDGE POPE) ROYAL OAK PALE ALE
Original brew (now re-created worse by O’Hanlon’s) tosses an aromatic chocolate liqueur punch into the creamy mocha center, where correlative fruitcake jab reaches temperate brandy finish. Sly hop bitterness picks up nutmeg-berry riptide, sprucing up the corners for unique pale ale with abundant character.
