(22oz bottle) Clear, light amber body topped by a big off-white head, nice lacing. Aroma is medium sweet, floral, some bread, light caramel. Taste is moderately sweet, floral/orange, bread/caramel. Watery light-medium body, light chewiness.

Bottle courtesy of kyzr: Pours a transparent deep golden bronze with a spotty white head. Aroma of pale malts with a touch of sauerkraut. Body starts lightly sweet but drying and thinning quickly with some mild tartness. This definitely seems infected and off.

NABA BeerFest 03: A nice pale ale, tons of cascade hops with a nice finish, aroma was not the best however.

The beer after extrication from the brown 22 ounce bottle pours nebulous deep amber to mahogany color with a Bunyanesque creamy light tan head, the lace a thick and glutinous sheet to obscure the glass. Nose is lightly floral, backed up by a nice malt sweetness, quite crisp and clean. The beer starts lightly sweet with a nice malt profile; the top is fair to middling in its feel to the palate. Finish is orthodox in its acidity; the hops are purposeful in their spiciness, the aftertaste quite dry, and a real refresher as its 103 here today.
