COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
MPA has a bright, crisp hop aroma, reminiscent of grapefruit. In the flavor, the hops are clean and citrusy. A light, but still balancing, malt profile counters a moderate bitterness. The yeast contributes a subtle fruitiness that enhances the citrus character of the hops. The finish is slightly sweet with lingering hop flavors.

On tap @ brewery. Slightly hazy, golden yellow appearance with a pretty small, white head. Piney, bushy hoppy nose. Pretty potent piney, organic hoppy flavor. Bitter, piney aftertaste.

Crushed a big boy pint at the taproom. Pours a hazy orange with a pretty nice, sticky head. Aroma of malts, slighty fruity and floral. Flavor is pretty bitter with more floral hops. Decent pale.

This beer was really good it had a floral scent from the hops but it never overpowered the beer

On a recent trip to Fort Collins with friends, we had the opportunity to try this one on tap at the brewery. Poured a nice golden color with a small white head. Aromas of biscuit and citrusy hops. On the palate, light to medium bodied, with biscuit and citrusy hops.

On tap during 2011 Colorado Brewers Festival in Fort Collins. Orange-gold in color, very little head. Faint aroma of funky orange zest, and some green peppery hops. Taste had more hop bitterness than flavor. Pretty citrusy, but also pretty malty. A combo of pale and caramel-cereal grain malt hold a firm backbone to the tangy hops. Yet, odd somehow...to bitter for its smoothness. More carbonation would have helped.
