Powell Street Craft Brewery Stay Gold American Pale Ale at 4.8% ABV | 24 IBU (C$6.19 at BC Liquor Stores, 650 ml, packaged on 28-Jul-2017, acquired 14-Sep-2017, reviewed 22-Sep-2017)
Appearance: slightly hazy deep gold with two fingers of fluffy ivory head, good retention and moderate lacing. (4/5) Aroma: tropical fruit, orange flesh, stone fruit, grainy pale malt. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (8/10) Medium body, moderate carbonation, off-dry mild bitter finish. (4/5)
I of course chose this beer for today as a nod to the passing of the golden days of summer. Stay gold, Ponyboy! This is actually quite nice, with juicy fruit notes on the front end, and a pleasingly smooth body courtesy of the oats. (16/20)
