COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The very intense, complex aromatic character with a refreshing, crisp finish is achieved by dry hopping. The fruity, citrusy aroma is a nice complement with grilled prawns and spicy foods.

Draught, Dog & Pony
Light amber colour. Aroma has bread, bubblegum and only a little hop. Odd. Light, sweet palate with hints of peachy esters and bubblegum. Light bitterness in the back, but I agree with the esteemed Mr. Pitonka, it needs more hop! (Better malts and a more interesting yeast signature, too).

Orange color, small white head. Orange, bready aroma. Bready malty, orange-hoppy (fruity) flavor. A bit sweet aftertaste, late bitterness. Basic IPA which is maybe almost APA.

bhensonb (7131) - Woodland, California, USA - JUN 28, 2007
Aroma is hoppy - I say floral and citrus. Golden amber color with a white head that filmed and left lacey tatters. Medium bodied, medium carbonation. Floral, citrusy fruity hop. The malt is hardly in it - but call it light caramel. The finish is so nicely bitter, with floral, fruit, pine and a small hit of citrus. This is way underrated. Trust me. Minor point: can light pine resemble floral/citrus? I’m torn on that. Bottom line: good stuff.

Tmoney99 (6889) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - FEB 6, 2009
Draft at Yard House, Las Vegas. Poured a clear amber color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate sour hoppy aroma. Medium body. Medium bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration. This is a good drinkable brew.
