Hunter Pale Ale

Country - Australia

Percentage - 5.2%

Brewing Company - Hunter Beer Co.

This is a bottle conditioned beer that when poured is a cloudy orange colour beer with a white head providing a sweet floral bouquet accompanied by citric hop notes. Some sediment is evident in the beer with little carbonation to be seen. On tasting, the beer has a medium body with a smooth, almost creamy mouth feel. The beer is a little dry on the palate with a bitter finish. Overall we consider this to be a lazy Pale Ale (especially considering price) that is pleasant drinking but leaves the consumer disappointed. The beer is a little one dimensional and is but a shadow of the Wicked Elf and Ekim After Battle Pale Ale.

Verdict - Good
