Tell us something we don't already know, huh? Smuttynose Brewery's Shoals Pale Ale was named one of America's Best Beers in the October issue of Men's Journal. Their interpretation of a classic English beer style is "copper-colored, medium-bodied and highly hopped. Its flavor is delightfully complex: tangy fruit at America's BestAmerica's Bestthe start, with an assertive hop crispness and a long malty palate that one well-known beer writer has compared to the flavor of freshly-baked bread."
