A lovely deep clear amber colour,with a fairly large tan head. Aroma is pleasent, with a mildly citrusy aroma. Hops are evident, but subtle and smooth. Taste is rich and pleasent. Midly acidic and well balanced.

Aug 19, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of yellow, orange, red fruits, pale/caramel malt, floral hops that blend in nicely. Flavor has a rich toasted character mingling with all the fruitiness and light hop bitterness. Full bodied but easy drinking and refreshing. Very nice beer.

Aug 17, 2008 355ml Bottle. Light amber with small white head. Light malt aroma. Pleasantly clean, crisp, dry taste with clean, dry aftertaste. Good maintenance beer for a hot thirsty summer day. Not as bitter as the Liberty.

Aug 15, 2008 Faint clean pale malt aroma. Clear light amber with small white head. Clean pale malt flavor with touch of caramel and slight bitterness. Light body and mouthfeel. Nice dry finish with low bitterness.

Aug 15, 2008 Darker color than I expected, not sure why because this is my first California Common . . . possibly my last if this is representative of the style. Flavor is wet cardboard and the kind of sweet malt you might find in a bad Begian Dubbel. Drinkable, but not by much.
