Cameron’s Brewing Company Motörhead Röad Crew American Pale Ale at 5% ABV | 45 IBU (C$2.76 at NLC Howley Estates, 330 ml, packaged on 5-May-2017, best before 30-Nov-2018, acquired 8-Nov-2017, reviewed 9-Nov-2017)
Appearance: clear pale gold with a thin white head diminishing rapidly to a thin skim, moderate lacing. (3/5) Aroma: citrus, berries, pale malt, noble hops. (6/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-high bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry moderate bitter finish. (3/5)
Yeah, if you went into his expecting an actual APA, you’d be bitterly disappointed (somewhat literally, as well as figuratively, given the biggish bitter). Then again, if after seeing that this was brewed by Cameron’s, you still expected an actual APA, you pretty much deserve what you get. There’s nothing actually wrong with this, but it’s a pretty typically English interpretation of an APA, and not very interesting. (12/20)
