Snake River Brewing Company's Pale Ale

This better be good. I can't remember the last beer I had, and I don't want to start it off with a bad one.

Pours a hazy yellowish amber, with an empty glow that I never like to see. Nice almost white head though, which stays well due to fairly string carbonation.

Nice hoppy smell to it. Some malt to it, but mostly a sort of grassy cleanness that seems right on type.

Good grassy punch up front. Malt is still less than an IPA, which keeps the body light like a pale should be. It has a bit of a cardboard harshness to it though, which is the only thing that takes points away. Overall a good beer.
