Draught at the brewery. This seemed a little better than their "house" APA. I really like the hops here. The really stood out in the aroma and flavour. Not much bitterness but more sweet, ruby red grapefruit. Left a little bitterness on your lips but not potent.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours dark amber with a medium thick white head. The hop aroma is definitely pronounced. It has a nice hop grapefruit flavor with a quick finish. There’s no lasting bitterness whatsoever. This is pleasant and drinkable in a session beer kind of way.

On tap at Denver Chophouse poured a clear amber with a small lasting ivory head. Aromas of carmel, tangerine and light mango. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of carmel, tangerine, light grapefruit and light pine with a crisp lightly bitter finish.

UPDATED: APR 28, 2009 Draft at Brewery 11/4/08 pours a light amber with a decent head. Aroma of hops. Taste is of hops and grapefruit. This medium bodied brew is quite tasty and one of their better beers.
