3751 | Canterbury Pale Ale | United Kingdom | American Pale Ale | 3.5
Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 8 330 ml bottle, a gift from Holmen2, many thanks! ABV is 4.0%. Golden colour, small white head. Nice aroma of pale malts and hops (which I first thought to be be English, but apparently they are American: Chinook, Citra and Cascade). The flavour has sufficient malts for its ABV, and fairly distinct citric and piney hops with a surprisingly bitter aftertaste. |
