stefanje (540), (Santee) San Diego, California, USA Oct 20, 2007 Bottle from Bevmo. Pours a translucent golden color with a small head that dissipates to 1/8 inch quickly. Some lacing noted. Aroma was complex with herbs, sweet citrus and and a bit of pepper. The flavor features biscuits, with malts and walnuts in a supporting role. The mouthfeel is initially thin but builds to a pasty fullness. The finish is long and clean and dominated by lingering piney biter hops. Overall: This is a great beer to come home to after a hard day at work. Recommended.
flatmatt (69), Northville, Michigan, USA Aug 21, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours slightly orange gold with a medium white head. Aromas of citrus hops, pale malts, some sweetness and what I want to describe as some mild strawberry aroma. Flavor is solid, with pale malts and citrus and spicy hops. Little caramel in there, too. Overall an excellent APA with a nice, strong balance of hops and malts. hop_lover (110), Corpus Christi, Texas, USA Aug 20, 2008 This beer pours a hazy golden color with an off white head that is quite dissapating. The aroma is like a pilsner, with very faint aroma of fruity notes in the nose. The mouthfeel is light like a summer pilsner. Faint sweet malts in the nose. Some spicy Cascade notes in the flavor. Not too impressive. Not bad though. Guess a good lighter summertime beer. Good for a BBQ.
