16-oz aluma-bottle. Pours beautiful copper color with a white head that’s not huge but still stands up. Super pine-y, almost resin-y nose. George Brett’s nemesis, if you will. Big toasty malt on the attack, followed by a crisp, slightly bitter citric finish. Medium bodied with very agreeable carbonation. In every way a great session beer, except that it’s not dinstinctive enough to be really memorable.

Medium dark gold,frothy head with good lacing,lotta carbonation. Aroma is malty bready with a sweet fresh fruit , pretty mild,some mineral,its somewhat pleasant. Taste is smooth mild with some toast ligth sweet carmel some citrus as well as some mellow citrus bittering taste drops off quickly leaving some toast and citrus bittering.Not bad.Easy drinking and mild.

Poured from the bottle, aroma is slightly grainy, flavor is similar. OK pale ale. Pretty mild on hop flavour.

Pours a clear gold with a foamy head that quickly fizzles out. Some nice floral scents stand out on the nose. It follows with nice balance of malt & hop. A solid & smooth brew. I’m a fan

In a can from Beer Masons. A good sessionable pale ale in the true American style. Not as hop driven as some West Coast styles but I enjoyed it none the less. Wish i could easily get more of this.

12-ounce can at O’Neill’s beer dinner. Mellow hol aroma and flavor. Fine bubble carbonation. Subtle maltiness. Light to medium body. Melllo whop bitternes. Nice light pale ale.

Yellow pour, white head. Cereal grain, crackers, herbal/grassy hops. Flavor is hoppy and malty sweet, not bad overall.

Originally reviewed: 5/15/09. Pours a goldish yellow with a large sticky white head on top. Excellent retention and beautiful lacing all over the glass. Smells like an IPA. Huge citrus and piney nose. Nice. Mouthfeel is firm and crisp. Flavor is muted and tame. Does not follow the nose. No citrus or piney hop presence, rather there is a dry, husky, grainy flavor. It’s pleasant, but nothing special. Not too bad.

Can. Translucent orange yellow pour. Aroma is sweet. Includes dried papaya. Taste starts bitter, but a malty sweetness comes through in the finish. High level of carbonation in this beer.

355ml bottle pours a golden color with a small white head that leaves a few spots of lacing on the glass. Aroma is light caramel and light floral hops. Taste is light caramel malty sweetness with some cereal grains and a mild hop bitterness that finishes quite clean on the palate. A pretty decent pale ale that is worth a try.

From tap at the Taphouse Grill. Pours clear and golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is fruity and light toasted malty. Toasted malty and caramelish. Light toasted malty and light bitter finish.
