Supposedly after the style of Pale ales from Burton Upon Trent, Firestone Walker Brewing company actually issues a challenge on their website to brewers in the UK, to beat this beer. While I think this is probably a little over-zealous and most definitely a challenge that Firestone would lose, this beer is well balanced and quite tasty. The English hop profile gives this beer a mild and pleasant "grassy" character and the simplicity of the beer makes this a great choice for a mindless pint. :)
Cheers!
