Epic Brewing Copper Cone Pale Ale (Release #79) American Pale Ale at 6.7% ABV (C$11.2 at Sherbrooke Liquor, 650 ml, no bottle date or best before)
Appearance: hazy pale amber with two fingers of rocky light tan head, good retention and patchy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: resiny pine, citrus, caramel malt, lightly nutty. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (8/10) Medium-light body tending a little to the watery, moderate carbonation, lingering finish. (4/5)
Nicely done APA. Heck, it would be fine as an IPA, except for the slightly light body. No tricks, no gimmicks, just a straight-up, hop-forward pale. Well worth trying. (16/20)
