Poured clear medium orange with a short cap of off-white head. The aroma picked up dry caramel, floral, and cat pee hoppage over a primarily pale malt base.. grassy notes right on the back. The flavor had more of Amarillo-ish floral and pine presence that coated the mouth with bitterness and carried through the finish.. pale malts and grapefruit supported.. long, pine and perfumey finish. Medium-bodied on the palate with high bitterness that stuck for a while on the finish.. refreshing and well-balanced. Nice one.

A: Pours a nice dark golden hue with an above average sized off white head. Okay retention and some lace noted.

T: Nicely hopped with notes of citrus and grass. Slightly earthy as well which is pretty nice. Mild caramel malt flavors to provide some balance. Pretty well done.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 22, 2010 Bomber. Over Valentines dinner with an anti pasta plate. An odd but good pairing for the peppers, Italian meats, and melon. Very dark and thick amber with a creamy, thick white head. Aroma is fresh fruit of lemons, limes, and peaches. Flavor is caramel and fruit but bitter and dry all over. Very medium bodied and drinkable with amarillo hops really coming through. nickd717 (1630), Palo Alto, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 8, 2010 Bottle from Bottle Barn in Santa Rosa. Drank this during the Super Bowl, the beer snob that I am, while most others were drinking BMC crap. Pours medium amber with a substantial off-white head. Aroma is sweet caramel malt and somewhat faded hops that are really citrusy and fruity. Some good tropical fruit esters in there and slight grassy notes. Flavor is great and well-balanced. Sweet caramel malt, toffee, grass, and faded citrusy hops. Orange, pineapple, mango, and peach flavors. Medium-full on the palate and a little more syrupy than I’d like. Average carbonation. This is a great pale ale overall. pivnizub (5294), Bochum, Porúří, Germany
