First Beer Review- Great Divide Pale Ale

Before we get into this review, I'm going to follow the same format for every beer I review; hopefully a picture of the bottle, and the same tasting criteria for each beer. If you have tried this beer and agree or disagree, please post. If you know of any comparable beers that might be slightly less expensive, please feel free to post those as well. Let's get as much info out there as possible.

I'm going to start a post titled Beer Scores to keep track of all the different beers I have rated and their scores so they can be quickly reviewed and compared.

Here's the review and the format I'm going to use each time. Comment if something isn't clear. Thanks for reading.

Brewer: Great Divide Brewing Company
Beer Name: Fresh Hop Pale Ale
Style: Pale Ale

Appearance: Pale, almost wheatish color.

Smell:
Not much of an aroma; what is there smells like a typical ale.

Taste: About middle of the road; solid pale ale taste with nothing extra to set it apart. A good, safe beer to order when out for dinner or drinks.

Mouthfeel: Not too watery. Not too heavy.

Drinkability: Definitely a repeat purchase. Not at the top of my pale ale list but definitely not at the bottom either.

Cost: $4.99/ pint.

Overall Score (1-5; five being perfect) 4. Good solid beer but not anything more than that.
