Palmetto Pale Ale from Palmetto Brewing Company
Rating: B
Thanks to mikesgroove for sending this one my way in a trade...
Appearance: Orange/amber in color, white one-finger head with good retention. Good lacing.
Smell: Aroma is a little weak. Caramel malt with some citrusy hops, and ale fruitiness in the background. Balance is not where I expect it to be for an APA, I'd expect more hops.
Taste: The flavor is a good bit different from the aroma - fairly bitter. Lots of bittering hops in this one, I'm guessing, but less flavor and aroma hops - perhaps there were cost considerations at play? Caramel malt, slightly acid. Clean finish.
Mouthfeel: Light in body, well-carbonated. A bit lacking in this category...
Drinkability: Not a great APA, but fairly drinkable nonetheless.
Serving type: bottle
