Pours a clear amber color with a failry large off white head. Spotty lacing. Sweet malt aroma with some hops. Flavor follows aroma. Fairly well balanced. Not a bad beer.

Draft - Not sure if what I had was an accurate representation of the beer. Draft lines may have been dirty. Tired malt flavor with a muted hop aroma and bitterness. I could tell there was something good here.

12oz bottle courtesy of screach. Pours a clear light amber color with a one finger white foamy head that settles slowly and heavily laces the glass. Aroma is sweet and floral with notes of citrus, grapefruit, honey, malt, some faint notes of caramel. Flavor is sweet and floral as well with stronger citrus, grapefruit and hops notes and hints of honey, spice, caramel, grass and yeast. Generally light body with a crisp floral hop finish.

Reviewed 2/8/2009 (bottle): Pours an amber orange colored body, with a rocky off-white head, somewhat lasting, with decent lacing. Dusty hoppy, somewhat grapefruity aroma. Some malty sweetness too, but mostly hops. Muted aroma. Light flavor, sweet, some hops. Somewhat sweet aftertaste, malty. Nice carbonation. Hoppy grapefruity taste. Very tasty, a nice hoppy session ale. Some fruitiness.

Pours a clear copper color with a white head. Aroma of hops, and some malts at the end, Tastes of floral hops with a slight malt presence in the back. A little too over carbonated for my liking,. overall a nice beer when there is nothing i haven’t tried available.

On tap at the Yardhouse in Long Beach. Aroma has some citrus/pine hops in there...cascade. Color is a golden amber with a small off-white head. Flavor is a wonderful balance between malt and hops, biscuity, toasty, a little caramel without being sweet, while still being hop forward. light to medium bodied with a dry finish. A very nice example of an APA.
