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.

Nice bouquet of floral hops and grass. Light gold in color with a nice white ehad and lots of effervesence. Some sweet and sour malts are accompanied by modest bitterness - citric and grass. Slight dryness on the swallow. A little thin but quite a quaffer.

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.

Looks like a pilsner, clear gold, white head, nice hoppy flavor and aroma. At $2.79 per bomber, it’s a pretty good deal.

Suttree (3765) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - APR 11, 2011
Slightly cloudy orangey gold, with a durable white head. Very sticky, piney aroma, with a hint of grapefruit. Piney stoney flavor - very aggressive hop bite. A little bit of caramel creeps in as it warms. Tasty...

carboloader (550) - Houston, Texas, USA - JUL 3, 2008
Pours transparent golden with typical white head that lasts a while. Aroma is fruity citrus hops. Flavor is typical Northwest hops along with nicely dry and bitter finish. Nice malt backbone. Not a strong IPA by any means, but quite drinkable like a strong pale ale. I would buy again.

Bottle from Windy City. Deep golden color with orange hi-lights upon pouring. Citric hoppy aroma. Somewhat peppery. Flavor is dry and hoppy. Good solid bitter qualities. Not super bitter, but an easy sipper with good hoppiness.

Had it right a the brewery and was favorably impressed. It will not wow those hop heads but it was clearly within style and clean tasting.
