Bland moderation with polite grassy hop astringency and wavering lemony grapefruit-orange zest picks up sharp salty spicing. Honeyed cereal malt backdrop stays slick.

ROSCOE’S HOP HOUSE PALE ALE
Vague easygoing moderation stays smooth but unfulfilled. Bland bready malts evaporate alongside astringent hop-spiced fizzle. Meager orange-grapefruit snip wavers.
ADIRONDACK DIRTY BLONDE PALE ALE
Sessionable dry-bodied moderation offers light lemony grapefruit sugaring to mild mineral-grained Cascade hop bittering. Clean Adirondack water crisping freshens daintily herbal citrus florality and raw-honeyed wheat spine.
HOP CITY MR. HUFF PALE ALE
A simple pleasure. Biscuity medium-bodied English pale ale may lack vigor, but its easygoing session-ability will please tamer thirsts. Toasted barley-hop crisping, sweet caramel malting, dried orange fruiting and tingly spicing sit atop cereal-grained torrified wheat spine.
WYNKOOP SILVERBACK AMERICAN ALE
GREEN FLASH CEDAR PLANK PALE ALE
Assertive collaboration with Florida’s equally respected Cigar City takes Green Flash 30th Street Pale Ale on an ultra-dry woody hop journey, bringing bitter India Pale Ale fruiting to light Spanish cedar wood lacquering. Pungently dry grapefruit-peeled orange rind bittering leads the way over spice-hopped peppercorn salting and resinous pine deferral. Ancillary pineapple, tangerine and navel orange tang picks up gin-like boozing.
#FREEDOM UNALIENABLE RIGHTS
Heavily herbaceous golden-hazed pale ale brings sunny lemon spritz and musty fungi aromatics to peppery Belgian yeast. Lemongrass, pink peppercorn, sage, thyme and sandalwood illusions influence alfalfa-grassed citric rot. Fern, pine nut and evergreen undertones add rusticity to unique herbal splendor.

(SAND CREEK) LILYA’S PULLING BOAT PALE ALE
Unsubtle medium body snags grainier IPA-like Cascade-hopped citric fruiting for bitterer pale ale styling. Softly creamed crystal malts anchor spice-tingled pineapple, grapefruit, orange and peach nuances. But buttery diacetyl nature ruins biscuity bottom.

ASS KISSER VANILLA PALE ALE
Soft vanilla creaming depreciates by astringent phenol-hopped midst. Caramel-toasted almond, coconut and marshmallow illusions run out of steam while vacuous chocolate roast never materializes. Oily diacetyl buttering ruins the lame vanilla-sweet finish.

WORTHINGTON’S RED SHIELD ALE
SHINER WILD HARE PALE ALE
Easygoing floral-bound fruited moderation gets thin and metallic after promising entry. Soft-toned caramel apple, brown pear, tangerine and lemon meringue illusions flutter by gentle sugar spicing and delicate hop-fizzed astringency. Vacuous phenol carbolics dissolve biscuit-y wheat backbone.

PALM BEACH SHOAL DRAFT PALE ALE
Despite handy ‘draft’ appelation, bottled version of moderate Cascade-hopped pale ale got sampled. Barley-malted cereal graining and toasted caramel sweetness impact softly hop-spiced citrus tartness. But soapy finish nullifies initial fruity aspect as creamy head dissipates. Serve to lighter blue collar thirsts.
