Otto's Pallet Jack Pale Ale

I seem to be drinking a fair amount of Otto's beer lately.  I hadn't seen Pallet Jack Pale Ale on their tap menu before, so I thought I'd give it a try.  Once again, I forgot to whip out ye olde celle phone and take a quick pic before indulging, so I'll have to paint you a picture with my words instead.

Impression:
I have to say I was fairly impressed with how well the Belgian yeast strain paired with the American hops.  I've tried a slew of Belgian-yeast-American-hops crossovers, and many of them were quite off balance, but Pallet Jack Pale Ale is pleasing to the eye, the nose, and the taste buds.  It's a cloudy, golden-straw color, but I can't really comment on the head since there was little of it left by the time I was served.  There was a fair amount of lacing, though, so I know it had a decently tall head at one point.  The aroma is pleasantly fragrant but mild, with hints of earthiness, fruitiness, and some floral undertones.  The major hops players were the citrus/grapefruit and pine flavors, but they weren't harsh like I've tasted them in other Belgo-American hybrids.  Instead, they nicely complemented the awesome esters that I love so much in Belgian yeasts.  The mouthfeel is smooth and creamy, and the carbonation brings a bit of a sting.  The crisp and dry finish round out the beer very nicely.  I would absolutely get this one again, especially on tap.

Cheers!
