Founders Dry Hopped Pale Ale

This 5.4% ABV pale ale is from Founders Brewing Company of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The beer pours orange and dark golden, near amber. There is a half inch of off-white head. The aroma is floral and fruity, oranges, apricots and plums, along with the funkiness of a German lager. The taste follows the aroma, adding sun tea with lemon, biscuits with a light sheen of orange marmalade and a moderately bitter finish. The aftertaste is of sweet and bitter tall grass and dried apricots.

This beer is simple perfection of the pale ale style, the flavors are subtle, not calling for verbosity, but it is hard to do justice with words regarding how good this beer is.
