Bottle. Poured with an average-sized, off-white head. Hazy-bodied, and a nice, dark-orange color. Aroma was mostly of hops, with some very fetching citrus as well. Medium-bodied on the palate, creamy texture, and average carbonation. Very nice flavor that ends moderately bitter and stays with you for a while. Overall, another excellent APA that I experienced in the same time frame as some other great examples of the style.

A very nice beer that poured a hazy copper colour and a foamy off-white head. The head left some nice lacing and the aroma was slightly malty with fruity undertones. Taste was malty and again a hint of the floral. A clean and refreshing beer.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with ditmier. Pours a cloudy amber tinted gold with a moderate linen white head that lasted through three-quarters of the glass and laced the glass well all the way to the end. Pleasant aroma of malt, pine and grapefruit. The flavor is a nice balance of malt of fruity grapefruit hops with moderate bitterness at the finish. Well done APA.

Pours a hazy brownish amber with a nice white head and some sticky lacing. Aroma is malt, hops, caramel, grass, pine. Flavor is water, hops, caramel, citrus, grass, just enough bitterness. Nice sessionable widely available pale ale.

Pours a medium brown amber color with decent head. Smells like pine needles and wood. Very flavorful for a pale ale. Tastes malty with a good amount of bitterness attached. This beer gives a good mouthful with a flavorful aftertaste.
