Don’t be fooled by the powerful hop aroma of Field 41 Pale Ale. Heavily dry-hopped with Simcoe® and Ahtanum™, this perfectly sessionable Pale Ale drinks easy with a smooth bitterness and is named for the hop field that is home to Bale Breaker Brewing Company. Light and refreshing, it’s the perfect beer for a day on the river or afternoon on the slopes.

Who's been drinking this

Very fresh hops, yet it is drinkable. If bet people who like this sort of thing really would .I just think it's fine.
Awesome pale with hints of pine on the nose and finish!
Draft
Smell and taste are mainly citrusy, some tropical fruits. Lighter body, hint of bitterness.
Stylewise, I want some more cereal body in a pale ale, so expectations ding this a bit. More like a dry session IPA in the vein of Stone's Go To in flavor, this is actually quite good for what it is. Next time I'm in the mood I'll go into it with no preconceptions and it will, I'm sure, rate better.
