BlackDonald (1039), North Carolina, USA Jul 17, 2008 An interesting creation stylistically speaking. Has some good flavors to it, some citrus fruit and orange peels, with enough hop bitterness to keep it interesting, pretty nice balance, could have a little more maltiness. Remains pretty clean throughout and enjoyable to drink. beerguy101 (3488), Newark, California, USA Sep 19, 2006 Tasted on tap at brewpub. This American Pale Ale pours an orange gold color. Small sized white foamy head. Aroma is orange and citrus. A medium bodied pale ale. Malts are fruity and sweet, orange and orange peel. Hops are citrusy and grapefruity. A fairly bitter APA. Nice juicy hoppiness. Lively carbonation. Good balance. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is bitter. turnerm5 (12), Bellingham, Washington, USA May 18, 2006 Dark amber pour, very short-lasting off-white head (It is out of a home keg...). Light citrus aroma. Very soft, never lingering on the palate for more than second, very mediocre body. A little astringent quality at the very end, nothing too terrible. Once again, a light citrus flavor with a small bit of sweetness. I recommend this for a party or lounging in the sun. Not a beer to be savored, but still highly recommended. KyleMac5 (16), Bellingham, Washington, USA May 18, 2006 Short lasting head, not as hoppy as expected. Has a smooth taste with a slightly sweet aftertaste. Good seasonal. JoeMcPhee (3807), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Oct 31, 2005 Hazy amber colour with a creamy white head. Aroma is quite earthy and woodsy with a fresh fruity yeast aroma as well. Flavour is well-balanced, earthy hops and light caramel sweetness. Fruity yeasty esters really make this beer. Light hop resin and earthy bitterness. Balanced British-inspired pale ale.
