On tap at Bonaventure. Orangey amber body with a small white head. Aroma of flowers, hops, and citrus. Flavor is slightly hoppy with citrus notes. Palate is thin but not watery. A nice beer, but nothing special.

A Sim rate (on tap at the brewpub, LA): Aroma is fresh and slightly hoppy. Flavour has a subtle but quite nice bitter hop. Not great, but drinkable and does the trick.

Nice light hop aroma. Pretty balanced pale ale. Hops first, thane a malt middle; kinda English style. Very cloudy color. Drinkable.

on tap at the brewpub. my favourite from the sampler tray. Will be having this again in the enxt 20 minutes to give it a fair shake

On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear copper color with a small white head. The aroma is sweet earthy citrus hops. The flavor is a mellow lightly bitter hop with some grain. Somewhat dirty.

Draft at brewpub this afternoon. Considering we had walked miles in the heat while exploring downtown, I was glad to find a nice cold draft beer. This is a basically california style pale ale. Mild hops, a tad floral aroma. Refreshing but nothing real unique.

Draft at the brewpub. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of grapefruit and hops as well as light notes of caramel and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and grass, as well as lighter notes of grapefruit and hops, leading to a grainy and bready finish.

From tap at the brewpub. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Mild fruity and caramelish aroma. Flavour is sweet fruity at first before a more proounced dry bitterness takes over.

On tap at brewery very citrus grainpfruit from cascade. typical pale ale very good nothing out of ordinary but it is what you would expect. A good west coast pale. Nice

Pallid but hoppy...mild but bitter. Poured minimal head into a 23 oz (this is one thing nice about Bonaventure) stein.

Draught at the brewpub. Lightly hazy pale amber, no head. Grapefruit aroma. Clean and crisp with light body and somewhat soapy mouthfeel. Bitter finish. An uncomplicated, nicely hoppy, very drinkable classic style American Pale Ale.
