3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
650 ml bottle from LCBO. Pours a hazy gold with lasting, moderate-sized, lasting white head and a steady stream of fine carbonation. Strong citric, grassy hops in the aroma. Flavour is very big on citrus, with grass and light caramel. Quite dry. And quite good.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
22fl.oz bottle from twin liquors in Austin TX. Pours gold-amber with a large, but short lasting head. Subtle metallic, yet more so caramel aroma underlying ’c’ hops. Medium to high carbonation, light body with dry astringent lingering typical anchor yeast and bitterness. I wish i was a fan of their classic strain, however cannot tolerate the lingering and least pleasurable effects in large doses..
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Wow, I was only one year old when this beer first came out. 12 ounce bottle from Total Wine in Tustin ($1.79). Pours a honey-orange color with one finger of white foam. Aroma is mellow but nicely hoppy (grass, peach, citrus). Flavor is also nicely hoppy and surprisingly bitter leading to a dry bitter finish. Could use a slightly stronger malt profile, but still a very good and probably sessionable pale ale. (1763, 267)

Bottle. Orange/amber coloured pour with smallish head that vanishes rather quickly. Aroma of hops. Tastes quite dry, bitter, citrus fruit, hoppy. This tastes much better on draught.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
12 oz bottle pours clear yeallow with frothy white head, great lacing and everlasting effervescent bubbles. Aroma was fantastic lemon, grapefruit and lavendar. Tast is like a light sweet tea then an ultra dry citrus hop finish. Very lively carbonation and the only real knock against this beer is that it finishes a bit too dry.

Floral and citrus hops aroma. Amber w/ moderate head. Some light malt flavor, but definitely a hoppy and dry / bitter ale. I swear I tasted apricots. Bitter finish. Medium light body. Very good pale ale.
