Widmer Brothers "Drifter Pale Ale"
American Pale Ale (5.7% ABV)

[Best served in a Lager Glass]

Rating: 3.7/5.0

Aroma: 6/10
Appearance: 3/5
Taste: 8/10
Palate: 4/5
Overall: 16/20

It poured a deep dark orange amber with a thin (less than 1 finger) fizzy white head that dissipated quickly leaving behind a tiny bit of residue floating on top which created some fairly nice sticky lacing.

The aroma was that of caramel malts, citrus hops and an earthy yeast with hints of orange and grapefruit.

It tasted malty and slightly bitter with a hint of caramel and orange at first and finished with a strong bitter hoppy flavor that had a nice grapefruit presence at the end. The flavor stuck around for a nice little while allowing the hops to settle nicely at the back of the throat.

Mouthfeel was light to medium in body and dry in texture with an medium carbonation.

Overall an exquisite tasting Pale Ale that left a very nice hoppy citrus flavor lingering, letting you really enjoy all aspects of this brew.
