FROM THE LABEL: BY FAR THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LABEL I HAVE SEEN ON A BEER...............

FROM THE MOUTH: AMERICAN PALE ALE (APA): Extraordinarily easy to drink and quite refreshing, largely because this is a pretty straightforward brew. Starts with a light malt followed by medium bitterness and that is it- light  sweet meets medium bitter with no messing around with any other flavors. This is 100% Cascade hops - they are not giving 'cuts'. Wish this was a Washington beer so I could drink it more often, a very nice representation of an APA. A+

FROM THE STORE: A gift from my sister Peg back in Indiana. THANKS SISTA!
