5 Barrel Pale Ale
English Pale Ale
5.2% ABV
Appearance: Pours a golden orange with a creamy finger and a half of foam.
Smell: A good amount of lemon and grapefruit with some mild earthiness. Smells very clean and just a tad soapy.
Taste: Follows the nose with nice light citrus, pine, herbal earthiness and some toasted, bready malts. Well balanced with a mild, smooth bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Appropriately light to medium bodied with good carbonation.
Overall, this was an enjoyable and easy drinking pale ale. Nothing too exciting or unique but a superbly well-balanced and refreshing beer with a pleasant aroma and flavor. This would be a nice summer session beer. I could definitely knock back a few of these while enjoying some good barbecue.
