12 OZ BOTTLE FROM local grocer. Very fresh citus aroma. Hazy deep copper color. Very large head. Lots of lace. Very nice fruity hoppy taste. Very smooth. Full bodied yet I feel i could drink several of these. Citrusy aftertaste that lingers just the right amount of time. This is a very well hopped and balanced pale ale.

Had it on tap while visiting family in Oregon and was sold on the spot. Tastes pretty good in bottle as well. Nice fruity aftertaste.

On tap pours hazy golden with a nice white head. Aromas of carmel and floral hop. Taste of mostly carmel malts and a nice hop finish. A nice easy drinking pale ale to get started with.

A decent pale ale. Not too sweet and floral and slightly bitter. Long lasting hop taste with alot of malty notes. Aroma is fruity, malty, and slightly astringent. The taste is of sweet corn, berries, and malts. Well done, but a little bit on the bitter side.

Draft in Billings, MT. Hazy copper color with an average fizzy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate sour citrus hoppy aroma. Medium body. Medium smooth bitter flavor with a medium bitter finish of moderate duration. I would recommend this to a freind.

Sampled from bottle. Pours cloudy orange-amber with a thick off-white head. Aroma is mild with floral notes. Bready malts and spicy/piney hops make up the flavor. Some citrus fruit present. Quite balanced. A bit thin bodied for what I was expecting (medium-light). Completely average.
