does not count  Aug 10, 2007 When someone offers you an ale, just an ale, what do you think? Well, this is it. Light, clean, a touch of hops (floral), a squeez of citrus, at 4.5% abv... it is what it is. Nothing special, but solid all the same. Nice. Especially when you’re in the mood to keep it simple.

Jul 4, 2007 Bottle courtesy of kenb. Thanks Ken. Pours a slightly cloudy golden color with a small fizzy white head. The aroma is citrusy hops. The flavor is a mix of citrus and grains. Body is light with the right amount of carbonation. The is a respectable summer beer.

May 3, 2007 Updated: Jun 4, 200712 oz bottle via Roth’s. Pours a near clear amber with a nice head that quickly recedes. This is actually quite tasty, a bit biscuity, then some citrusy/grassy hops, and a nice toasted grain finish. Body is light/medium, carbonation is moderate. This is tasy and easy to drink, and would be my summer session beer of choice if it were more readily available. Tastes more like an APA than a golden ale.

Apr 21, 2007 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear pale gold with a big head, high carbonation, and no lacing. Floral and citrus nose. Flavors is similar, with lemon notes and carmel notes. Thin mouthfeel and a crisp finish. Not bad, but Deschutes produces far better beer than this one.

Apr 4, 2007 Updated: Apr 5, 2007From a 12 oz bottle this poured a nice clear gold with a moderate white head and good lacing. Nose was of malts and hops, with a little flowers. Mourhtfeel good, and flavor shows citrus. Finish crisp and clean. Good beer

Feb 15, 2007 Poured a pale gold color with a dainty cap of head that took off in no time. The nose was of toasted grains and soft cascade hops. The taste started with grainy malts; the hops are very much a secondary note, and quite soft at that. A somewhat citrusy aftertaste develops as you progress through the beer. Quite smooth and clean, but not spectacular. Light bodied with moderate carbonation. Overall, not a bad beer, it isn’t what I’m looking for in an APA. The balace is too far off for me. Not Deschutes best offering.
