Fernie Brewing Company Finish Line Hazy Pale Ale with Lime – American Pale Ale at 4% ABV (C$2.95 at Collective, 355 ml, packaged on 10-Mar-2020, acquired 7-May-2020, reviewed 8-May-2020)
Appearance: hazy pale straw with two fat fingers of rocky white head, excellent retention and moderate stringy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: lime juice, wheat, light tropical fruit. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate-low bitter, light tart. (7/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry mild bitter lightly tart finish. (3/5)
Brewer notes claim Citra and Vic Secret hops, but there’s not really a lot of that going on here above the lime juice. That’s not to say the lime is aggressive, just that the hopping is pretty weak. Pleasant, but not a lot going on. (14/20)
