Classic Pale Ale (Whistler) = 4/10

Most beer pricks, like myself, can describe the taste of a pale ale before the bottle is opened. Faint (but acceptable) nose of vegetal, floral and spicy hops with just enough caramel and bready malts to make you care. Yup, I called it. The mild, spicy and floral hops hit the tongue first with the caramel and bready malts taking up the rear. All this with a clean finish. This pale ale is OK, but not exciting. Props for nice bottles and inviting label.

The nose is very faint of water and pale barley soup. Overall it was a crisp slight pale malt taste with cleansing hops. Very crisp.

Aftertaste 0

It just ended clean after the floral hop snap.

It is what it is, an easy drinking beer that anyone will enjoy.

Ingame Enhancement +1

Dead Rain map in L4D2 shows a great use of environmental tricks to make the map more changing. It is harder to fight through zombies when it is pouring rain with lightning.

Overall 3/10

This is a better than average pale ale, suitable to bring to a BBQ. Everyone will like it but not be overwhelmed.
