Beer #25 - Dead Frog Pale Ale

Dead Frog Brewing Pale Ale
www.deadfrog.ca

Vancouver, BC area craft brewery Dead Frog Brewery has only been brewing since 2006 and has earned some loyal fans already.  The folks at Dead Frog are all about having fun, which with a name like Dead Frog doesn't come as much of a surprised.  When asked why they started their brewery this is what they had to say:
"We loved drinking beer, smelling beer, looking at beer, holding beer, talking about beer, romantic picnics with beer, watching sunsets with beer, moonlit strolls with beer, ballroom dancing with beer, watching The Notebook and Rudy with beer, etc... You get the point, we love beer!!!"  This pale ale is one of their top sellers and is available year round.

It has a nice rich amber colour with a nice thick white foamy head.

It has a great hoppy aroma with some citrus undertones.

It starts clean with a hint of the citrus notes with the nice hop flavour coming in mid taste which fades away leaving a nice clean finish.

It's a nice pale ale, with a little more hops than is typical of the pale ale style with the added uniqueness of the hint of citrus.  It is the kind of pale ale you could easily sip on a nice summer afternoon and keep sipping them until your BBQ is ready and even keep sipping them a little longer.
