Sampled on draught at the brewpub restraunt in Idaho Falls, Idaho. Pours a clear golden amber brew with a thin white head with good retention and lacing. Aroma has a nice balance of caramel malt, citrusy hops with a touch of bubblegum. Taste is slightly sweet, very low carbonation, medium bodied with a smooth caramel malty flavor. Finish is sweet at first and then a crisp, semi-dry bitter in the aftertaste.

Draft @ Mountain Brewers Beer Fest 2010, Idaho Falls, ID. Pours a clear amber color with a longlasting off-white head. Has a fruity malty hoppy caramel aroma. Fruity malty hoppy citrus flavor with hints of caramel. Has a fruity malty hoppy finish.

On tap: Weird beer which has a funky malt tastes and smels of citrus. It gives a good impression at first then goes down hill.

Draft at brewpub: Dark golden pour with a smaller white head. Thick sheet lacing. Nose is mild of citrus and florals, some caramel tones. Flavor is citrus and light maltiness. Even a bit bready into the lingering hops finish.

on tap-pours a thin white head and gold color. Aroma is faint citrus. Taste is sweet citrus (some cascade) hops, floral and some bitter, faint malt. Crisp/dry.

A touch on the maltier side than I preferred. Cascadian hop nose, and comes across again in the finish. Very light and mild and boring.

On tap @ The Brownstone. Pours a golden amber color. Aromas of hops. Flavor is caramel malts and a bitter hop finish.

Amber with a foamy head. Nose is meh... bitter. Flavor is slightly bitter reminiscent of bubblegum or pepto. Not all that good.

Draft - A caramel colored Pale Ale. Good malt flavor, with mild hop flavoring.

NABA ’05: Gold, musky hop aroma. Watery light malts, easy drinker at a stretch and a bit hoppy. I could have a few more of these if it were hotter.
