From the brewer

Brewed specifically for the Whiteaker Block Party, Ice Nine is a light and flavorful pale ale. Made with Northwest Pale Ale and honey malts, this beer finishes crisply. And like its inspiration -- a fictional super-cooling polymorph dreamed up by Kurt Vonnegut -- it is sure to add a little ice to a hot summer day. Ice Nine: serve cold and morph with it!

Who's been drinking this

A light golden ale. Slight funk on the nose, but a super light, cereal-malt flavor with nicely balanced hops. I wouldn't have guessed pale ale. More like a kölsch, bright & summery.
Good, doesn't go into funk taste direction. Mild taste and pairs well wth spicy food which brings out some fruit flavors.
