4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: JUN 4, 2008 I had a cask version of this which was very nice.
Gold, it has a somewhat large, creamy, white head that slwoyl shrinks and leaves some fairly decent lace.
In aroma and taste it is lightly toasted grain with lemon and grapefruit as well has a hint of pine. Light and crisp, it nevertheless has a smooth, creamy feel. The finish is aromatic and lightly bitter wtih toasted grain, lemon and pine.

Nice hop aroma, poured clean with a clear golden color. Taste made me think light bodied IPA rather than pale ale, good flavor just not too memorable. Refreshing beer, light bodied. Drank as a pre-lunch beer at BJs in Orlando, FL enjoyable for what it was but tons of better options on thier guest taps.

Medium amber pour with a thin cream colored head. Nose and flavor are lightly hopped and caramel malt. Decent.

Your average pale ale. Very hoppy and flowery but it sure goes nice with their buffalo chicken pizza

I like this one. Good hoppy notes to it and with a great floral notes. Lighter in color with a good bite to it.

On tap at BJs and served in a frosty glass (why do they feel they have to do this???) - Clear copper in color and grapefruit and orange for the aroma. Has a nice taste of grapefruit hops but lacking in the body. Has a dry finish.

Looks good in the glass and has a nice grapefruity aroma, but the body and flavor leave something to be desired. Hint of hops in the flavor with a bit of breast malt, but overall pretty watery in mouthfeel and taste.

Some hoppiness and grapefruit but overall it’s a watery mess. thin mouthfeel
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Clear golden in color with a foamy laceful head. The aroma is zesty hoppy, with notes of grapefruit and orange juice, and just a smidge of toffee. Taste wasn’t too far from the smell. Hoppy, but not very bitter. Much citrus like orange and grapefruit, with a slightly herbal finish, and a quiet rusty toffee tone and cereal grains throughout the background. Not shabby, but not great. Kinda light.

A relatively basic pale ale. Nice herby smell, and brown color. Taste is a nice mix of malts and hops. Not much aftertaste. Had on tap.

Sampler at Arlington, TX location. Comes clear orange gold with a small white head. Aroma of florals, citrus, and malt. Taste is citrus, floral hops, piney hops, and malt. Pretty good.
