Sep 30, 2005 Updated: Apr 14, 2007Pours a dark golden with orangish hues. Aroma of grapefruit, mango, citrus, and resinous hops. Taste is grassy, slightly bready/grainy, with spicy and sweet citric hops. Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation. This is improved recently, I raised my rating from 3.4 to 4.0. Well balanced with plenty of hops.

Dec 2, 2007 Bottle from shp555 - thanks! Somewhat cloudy orange pour with a light-med head. Aroma has a nice citrus-floral hop essence mixed with some rye. Flavor is a nice rye/hop mix that would be awesome if it didn’t have a somewhat "off" grainy taste (not very off). Nice APA that is quite refreshing.

Dec 14, 2008 Bottle. Body is a very thin and transparent amber. Quite a bit of carbonation and a small sudsy head. Aromas are kind of weak... mostly a floral hops presence there, but a touch of citrus lurks quietly, too. Flavor is very nice and fairly bold. Just for a split second I thought I picked up the rye on the front edge of the first sip... it quickly got swallowed up in a wave of crisp hops. Pine and citrus hops are pleasant enough and the malt does a great job balancing things.

Beautiful floral and citrus bouquet--notes of apricot and strawberry. Also some toffee. Foggy gold covered by wisps of white. Flavor = assertive bitterness in front of dry caramel and bitter grapefruit. Peach and pear accents. Light to medium body, medium carbonation, lingering bitterness, though dry and crisp in the finish.
