This beer looks great ,honey color large white head with tight bubbles. Aroma does little for me lite and metal aromas. Flavors pretty good dry,hoppy a touch of sweetness and vegetal tones.

From the bottle at The Office in Warwick, RI. This is exactly what I would classify as an American beer. It’s a beautiful golden amber with a cloudy character. The aroma is sweetly hoppy. A very light mouthfeel. Tastes malty with a dry hop finish.

Aromaless, flavourless bland lager moonlighting as an ale. Smells of straw and VERY faint malt. Tastes like a slightly less dry, fuller pale lager

12 ounce bottle pours a golden color, aromas of citrus, light grass and some caramel. Flavors are the same, light bitter peel in the aftertaste, average pale ale overall.

Bottle. Grainy, light citrus, some sweeter husky malts. Flavor is lightly bitter, paper, grainy malt, faded hops. Are these beers ever fresh? And who Is buying this?

12-oz. bottle into a pint glass at my house on Sept. 7, 2012 (purchased at Cost Plus World Market in Grossmont (San Diego, Calif.) for a solo price of $1.99 on Sept. 6, 2012). Two fingers of head. Poured a caramel orange with off-white lacing. Below average cretention on the top and average on the sides. Smelled light citrus hoops, seemed to be orange more than anything else. Caramel malts, lemon, wheat and honey. Tasted similar to the nose. Malty. Light citrus (orange), iced tea and slightly bitter. Light body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Abrupt, bitter finish. Pretty average beer overall.

Bottle. Slightly hazy bright orange pour with a small foamy white head. Aroma is a bit dank - mild floral hops and musty. Moderate palate. Taste is bready malts, lightly bitter, and a bit sweet. Not a standout brew.

Pours golden orange with fizzy large white foam head that’s slow to dissipate. Brew shows plenty of carbonation and it is strong in the water like texture when drinking. Smells strongly of honey, hops with the citrus notes being more cloudy. Brew has a bite from hops and carbonation that is not so enjoyable. The honey and citrus blend together and leave a weird taste in the mouth.

Amber orange pour. Quickly receding head. Subdued nose, some light hops, citrus, honey. Medium bodied. Flavors mirror the nose. Crisp, clean finish, a bit on the sweet side.

Purchased at Breeze Thru Liquors in Milwaukee, WI; enjoyed on a hot summer day in St. Germain, WI. App slightly cloudy gold, slightly amber thin white head that rims around the glass. Aroma of light citrusy hops, orange peel, light hay malt, smells nice and light. Taste is slightly refreshing, orange peel the primary ingredient, aside from that its pretty much a standard pale ale, nothing too crazy about it.
