Appearance: Pours a copper/gold with a nice off white head with some lace left in the glass
Aroma: Citrus and pine hops

Less hoppy than I thought it would be from what the label says. But it is a good beer, wish I had another.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 13, 2009 Bottle. Poured a clear golden-copper color with a half-inch white head that diminished to a thin layer and left some spotty lacing. Aroma of lightly sweet caramel, some light leafy hops, and a hint of pine. Smooth, lightly sweet entry leads into a moderately dry hoppiness with some pine and light hints of citrus fruit (mainly orange) and finishes with a bit of sweet caramel maltiness offsetting the light, earthy bitterness. Low carbonation and somewhat thin mouth feel. Overall, a decent beer that seemed a bit subdued and thin. Had some promising qualities, but nothing that actually stuck out. douglas88 (1686), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA

The aroma is sweet caramel, earthy hops. A smooth sweet flavor; fresh citrus hops,caramel, earthy flavors. It grows on you and is a nice Pale Ale. Easygoing. Swalden28 (1538), McKinney, Texas, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 9, 2009 Caramel amber pour with a nice thick, white head. Aroma is not overpowering, but has ample buscuity sweetness and floral hop pungency. Not over the top, but nowhere near mundane. I guzzled this bomber with surprising speed. Super solid pale. hophead21112 (125), Louisville (LEWISville), Colorado, USA
