3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20169th rate of this brew. My 104th APA rate! Consumed in the beer garden at the Seattle Green Festival at the Convention Center with my girlfriend. Not much going on in the aroma, some malty sweetness, caramel, earthy floral hops are light but there. Perhaps in the mold of an organic SNPA. Amber pour, thin head. Lightly toasty and sweet followed by light floral bitterness in the finish. Easy drinking, sessionable, but not much else going on.

Further proof that just because something is organic does not mean that it is good. +++ Sampled form a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy orange-apricot color with a small soapy tan head that left minimal lacing. The aroma was tangy, sweet sugar and very faint tropical fruits. The flavor was tangy table sugar, a hint of tartness, cardboard and very faint tropical fruits. Short finish of sugar and fruit. Medium body. Disappointing.
