beer_name: Utah Pale Ale
text: Served on cask at the Bayou in Salt Lake City this had a deep cloudy butterscotch color with a medium velvety blanket of off-white bubblage and very good lacing. The aroma is bright grassy hops and slightly lemony wheatena, mild but notable. The flavor is somewhat bland with much the same effect as the aroma. Swampy bitterness with a vague hint of cinnamon and watermelon thrown in for good measure. Kind of an almond overtone but the swampwater dominates too much for me. Disappointing but drinkable. The feel is along the lines of what you expect from a cask but a bit thin I thought. I wondered if the cask here was a little off for some reason.
