GHOST HARBOR GYPSY TEARS PALE ALE

SEVEN TRIBESMEN SIERRA TANGO NEW ENGLAND PALE ALE

NEPENTHE ASTRAL DECAY PALE ALE
Fancier fruited pale ale is well designed IPA derivation.

SINGLECUT DEAN MAHOGANY PALE ALE
On tap at Seven Lakes Station, 'classic mash-up' of red ale-like brown breaded amber graining and pale ale-like floral perfumed orange/ tangerine tang with lemony grapefruit pining of an IPA. Mild red apple, red plum and Bosc pear illusions add further impact, but the flow's inconsistent.
