On tap at the brewpub, 2/18/06: Orange-copper with a nice sticky head. Almost a smoky tinge. Coppery/metallic with a sharp cheesy bitter finish.

tap at brewpub-clear orange with a fluffy white topping. notes of sugary fruits-mostly citric, flowery and quite floral. pineapple and mangos come to mind. flavors are very citric with notes of oranges, pineapples, light grapefruit. crisp palate that would make this a great session pale. lightly grainy malt husk notes in mid palate. finishes citric sweet and with some lite pine as well. not bad and straight forward pale ale.

On tap from the Brewhaus. Third of the night. Great white head retention. Golden honey colored. Zero aroma. Too cold, I guess. But a nice mouthfeel and a sweet-dry lingering hop finish. A little light but lively. Piney, tart and sour. I do believe that this was my favorite of the line. The rating is skewed due to the minimal aroma. But hey, it could be operator error on my part!
