4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Medium gold appearance with a rather clean, citrusy hoppy nose.
Palate offers a big ruby red grapefruit character with citrus sweetness and the grapefruit bitterness coming through. Malt profile has a nice candied quality, and there’s an herbal presence as well. Quite bitter on the finish.
Very drinkable.

On tap at Papago in Phoenix, 11-12-07. Beautiful tarnished copper color with nice head. Aroma is nice citrus, perhaps Simcoe hops? Great balance of hops and malt with nothing really taking the stage. Very, very good beer!
This is listed as an American Strong Ale at Papago.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20
Fresh from the tap at Papago, it pours a clear golden amber color with a substantial creamy white head, upon its depletion; the lacing provides a nice curtain to drape the glass. Nose is rich in malt, a delectable hop floral aroma backs it up, citrus like in its crispness, stat is sweet malt at the start with a real hop spiciness at the back, top is light to medium in feel. Finish continues the spicy hop bitterness, the acidity sturdy, with a sweet and dry aftertaste, a real pleasant drinking beer.

On tap @ the Tucson Beer Festival - Pours a golden color with a very slight haze. Nice white head. Aroma is a wide range of citrus. Flavor is mostly the citrus hops with just enough malt to make it sweet. Medium body. This was a good one.
