(12oz bottle) Lightly hazed amber body topped by a medium white head that rapidly diminishes. Aroma is moderately sweet, caramel, butterscotch, some orange, light grapefruit. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, grapefruit/orange, light lime. Light-medium body with some stickiness.

Amber color, light head. Nose of light dusty hops, pine and bubblegum. Sweet caramel and fizzy mouthfeel. Nice pale ale with no poor qualities. Tasty.

Bottle... Clear, deep golden ale with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Good retention. The sweet, floral aroma offers wild flower and clover honeys and black tea with a hint of English biscuit malt. Medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Great balance provided by moderate, black tea bitterness alongside pale malt sweetness. Lengthy clover and straw finish. Underrated, I think.

A mediocre offering in the APA category, almost seeming more like a weak American golden ale in flavor. The aroma’s okay, a sweet malt, caramel with butterscotch, and an orange & orange blossom hopping. The body is thin, the flavor weak - a light malt with a suggestion of wheat, some orange overtones. Finishes on a watery, metallic note.
