Joboy's BrewPub BPA (Belgian Pale Ale)

On a recent trip to Joboy’s BrewPub in Manheim, PA, I ordered a glass of the BPA (Belgian Pale Ale). The beer pours a golden color with a frothy white colored head. The aroma consists of yeast, pepper, Belgian spices, banana, cloves, and grass. The taste is sweet and spicy at the same time with a good banana base with lemon accents. Pepper and Belgian spices accentuate the sweetness nicely and it has a grassy finish. The alcohol content is 4.5% ABV. I enjoyed this Belgian Pale Ale, as it was neither overly sweet or spicy, but very complimentary on both sides.

Nodding Head BPA (Bill Payer Ale)

Another beer I ordered on my first ever visit to Nodding Head in Philadelphia was the BPA (Bill Payer Ale). The beer pours an amber color with a frothy white colored head. The aroma consists of tangerine, grapefruit, pine lemon, and caramel. The taste is bitter and dry with lots of citrus on the front end. Grapefruit, tangerine, and lemon all pop out before some bitter pepper and pine dry out the mouth. The alcohol content is 5.0% ABV. This was a rather delicious and dry pale ale, but beware that it is a dry and bitter pale ale.
