This is a great looking pale ale. It is very cool watching the foam and beer separate. Then a large rich soapy white head forms with plenty of carbonation underneath. Aroma is of American hops no sweetness at all. Bitterness is clearly present but it does not bring much of an aftertaste. Some pine and lemon can also be found. It all combines for a delightful beer to drink.

Sep 5, 2008 Hazy golden, thick white head. Very clean & fresh aroma, grapefuity hops and soft malts. Smooth malty flavor, strong citric hops, menthol, yeast towards the end. Medium bodied, smooth carbonation. Easy and fruity APA, could (but won’t) drink gallons of it a night.

Sep 5, 2008 12 oz bottle. Nothing too special with the aroma, but a pleasant unimposing citrus with an almost bready pale malt backing. Good looking head with the pour, stays around alright, but rather light looking, good amount of carbonation, straw-orange in color. I think this beer is very well balanced, nothing off-putting at all about the flavor, which is overall fairly standard apa affair with maybe a slightly more prominent bitter citrus hop linger at the end and aftertaste, which i enjoy. Really just a nice, solid, standard ale.

Sep 2, 2008 YOU CAN TASTE THE HOPS AND IT IS A LITTLE BITTER BUT IT GOES DOWN SMOOTH. I RECOMMEND IT AND IT IS WORTH A TRY.

Aug 28, 2008 Bottle with that distinctive Anchor shape. Nice copper color, slight haze, great head. Medium body. By today’s standards, it’s mild. West coast hops are balanced by bsicuity malts. Still worth drinking after all those years.
