Deschutes Brewery Mirror Pond Pale Ale

I'm in serious danger of getting to know the bartender at Iggy's Sports Grill. My daughter has Cheer-Tumbling practice for two hours, so I make a run for dinner & a beer.

Tonight I'm having a pastrami sandwich & Deschutes' Mirror Pond Pale Ale.

What a delightfully refreshing beer. PAs aren't my favorite style but this is very nice.

Light body. Short head. Light citrusy (cascade?) hops - not over powering. Dry & crisp on the pallet. This is the kind of beer I'd like to drink after working in the yard. Orange color. Excellent lacing on the glass.

If all cascade hopped beers tasted like this, I'd be a bigger fan of APAs.
