Wintry pine-spruce pliancy, spicy fruited hops, and biscuit-y tease engage subtle grain foundation, but indistinct finish lowers score. 
Disappointingly plain pale-bodied moderation lacks body, character, and weightiness Young's headier ales usually have in spades. Faint hops, dismal Scotch malts, distant pecan tinge, and overwhelming carbolic acidity come up acrid. 
Prickly spice-hopped sharpness fades by bland malt finish as embittered grains calmly cloak orange-peach aftertaste. 
Workmanlike ale drapes cake-like malts over busy orange-berry tang, cracked wheat richness, honeyed biscuit affluence, and rye-pumpernickel hint. Tamped down hops temper backend. 
Translucent coppery amber ale celebrates 25 years brewing circa 2004, boasting full-on barley roast and caramelized wheat sweetness girding soured lemon-orange-apricot pinch. But paltry hop bitterness nuzzling sullen grain finish lowers potential. 
Musty barley essence curtails earthy minerals, chocolate malts, corn sugar remnant, and nutty undercurrent. Subtle butterscotch and dark citrus hidden beneath pliant pilsner-embittered spice-hopped finish. 
Richly expressive honeyed wheat surge immerses roasted barleymalt sweetness and butternut-vanilla illusions of cloudy amber-hued winner. Tangy apricot-tangerine-nectarine amiability adds juicy sub-texture. Brewery defunct: 2009. 
Creamy barleymalt-fronted pale ale ultimately lacks body, as unassuming off-dry graining and paltry fruited backing will appeal to amateurs only. 
Bottled by Mercury Brewing, this well hopped citric-embittered pale body retains lemon rind, orange peel, and unripe grapefruit-peach tang deepening raw-honeyed medicinal stipulation, long-lasting black currant resolve and coarse coal aftertaste. Metallic oxidation tucked beneath hay-grass appeasement. 
Musty grain holding and beckoning barleymalt sweetness convey lager sensibility, but spicy orange peel aroma, compressed citrus midst, and persistent hop bitterness place this firmly in pale ale territory. Not as organic or busy as most first-rate West Coast brews, however. Brewery defunct: 2003. 
Crude barley-strewn pale body with mellow buttery mocha flow and sugary caramel chocolate sweetness gains prune ripeness, but character and consistency lack. Cardboard grains nearly ruin pleasant earthen hop finish. A bit too light and watery to be seriously competitive English ale. 
An ordinary (despite Special tag) golden ale lacking specificity and intent. Nebulous hop bitterness, derelict yellow fruit tartness, and faded carbonation dim its chances. Brewery defunct: 2004.
