Southern Tier's Phin & Matt's "Extraordinary Ale" REVIEW

Type: American Pale Ale

ABV: 5.4%

Color: An attractive transparent golden orange with a small bubbly white head

Aroma: Mild bitter bite when first sniffed. Some sweetness comes through near the end with maybe orange or light grapefruit essence.

Taste: Not that bitter at all, very mild  with some citrus. The taste of alcohol is definately not subtle...Its inyour face...I know the ABV doesn't represent it, but it is there. The finish is uneventful and fades quickly after the swallow.

Overall: This brew is everything but "Extraordinary". Nothing different from the many other American Pale Ales out there.Sorry Southern Tier, I enjoyed a few of your other beers, but this one is to normal to be great.

Score: 6.5/10
