Pours a beautiful, thick amber. Slight citrus and strong hops on the nose. Excellent beer in a can. Highly Recommended

Not a bad pale ale, kinda reminds me more of a Levitation-style amber than an APA, but I’m in a bitchy mood, so there. Cascade hops on the nose and all over the taste, dominating the other three hops used with disregard to their feelings. Some sweetness comes in from the malts, giving the beer the mildest of a honey-touched middle, but the Cascades are in control here. Drinkable as hell, that’s for sure, and quite the looker too. Good beer.

Can. Fruity and floral aroma. Pours golden thin white head. Medium sweet taste. More of a mild bitter and fruity finish. Easy drinking but good balanced flavor.

umich03jm (179) - Michigan, USA - MAY 27, 2012
Very nice looking beer. Pours a clear golden orange color with a nice thick head that lingers a while. Citrus and pine hop aroma along with some pale malt to back. Taste is very smooth. Nice sweet malt, solid bitterness, and some fresh citrus and pine hop flavor all balance nicely A great session pale ale. I’m gonna have to drive back to Ohio to pick up some more of this.

PorterPounder (4109) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - MAY 25, 2012
Macon, Ga - Wine Styles Liquor Store - 12 oz can. Pours a sparkling medium copper with a light but persistent off-white head. Nice spruce-like aroma with some floral accents. Flavor has a nice subtle bitterness to it with some light minty accents, some faint spicy notes. Brief nutty accents round it out nicely. Mouthfeel has a nice crispness to it. Very decent.

wlajwl (1797) - Quad Cities, Iowa, USA - MAY 25, 2012
Aroma is a mix of caramel malts and citrus hops. The flavor is caramel/biscuit malts, citrus and a medium dry/bitter finish.

nbondi (182) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAY 25, 2012
Light amber with little white head. Nose of grass, juicy oranges, bubblegum, white bread. Medium body with good, lively carbonation. Muted flavors of clover, grapefruit, honey, and fresh ripe berries. Nice, lasting bitter finish. Very good for the style and ABV.

jstraw (1211) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAY 24, 2012
Orange-gold with big, foamy, white head / Smooth, mellow nose of cream, soap, pine, citrus, and bubblegum / Light to medium body, again creamy and smooth with good hop bite, balance and nicely bitter finish / Flavors of cream, pine, and slightly cooked orange and grapefruit / There is nothing remarkable about this pale, just solid on all points and a near-perfect mild session ale.

micronaut129 (80) - chalfontborotowntonville, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 19, 2012
A super tall head right out of the can and a nice clear amber color. very little in way of carbonation. Aroma is fantastic with a bold citrus bouquet. Malts are secondary. Its all about the hops here. Super hop flavor while not being overly bitter. Good malts tone down the bitterness just a bit. Smooth and clean with good body. It’s amazing that there is as much flavor here as one might expect from an IPA or DIPA. Easy drinker
