Magic Hat Brewing Company’s #9 is very interesting. I detect fruity tones, which you would not expect in a Pale Ale. But, the nose is fruity with a little hop aroma.

It pours up with little to no head off from the draft taps at this location.

The fruitiness is present in the taste, too. There is a mellow malt flavor that is playing host to the fruit and hop flavors.

I think this is one of my favorite beers. The fruity tones are what makes this beer for me. It would be a great session beer with the 5.1% ABV an the limited flavor and aroma range.
