Light color on pour. Great hops aroma right from the start. Very tame flavor but still a nice amount of bittnerness. Really nice!! Glad I have a 22oz bottle!
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Smeade (80) - Illinois, USA - MAR 9, 2012
Bottled in Sept. 2011, drank in Mar. 2012; could attribute to mild flavors
S: gold color, slight haze, solid collar, thick lacing
A: very light smell, not much going on, but there is a faint sweetness, kind of like a creamy butterscotch
T: very mild bitterness, slightly sweet at the beginning, dries out at the end, medium finish
O: this is a good beer, but not a lot going on. I'm afraid the "fresh" hops are no longer fresh

2.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Cory (79) - , California, USA - MAR 21, 2013
Bottle. Aroma of light hops and cardboard, taste is bread like and mildly bitter. There is a sour rough feeling across the palate. The appearance was an amber color that left oil on the glass. I’m guessing this one was oxidized a little or something. An overall muted and off putting experience. Unfortunately it’s the only one I have.

Pours a murky Copper/Orange Colour with descent head into a Shaker Glass. The Aroma is of Freshly Mowed Grass with loads of Pine Needles. The mouthfeel is full bodied wow and a nice wallop of heft in the aftertaste of sugar and malt. This is very refreshing with the characteristic citrus notes. Some Lacing on the glass is visible. Kudos to the brewmaster in Denver for this Gem. Enjoy!
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 JohnCoyne (73) - Alabama, USA - AUG 13, 2008
Smells of crisp citrus, nice hops, then thick and syrupy grapefruit. Pours an orangey copper color with big white head and floaters in the column. Tastes of green plant like hops and balanced out by malt presence. Nasal Hops.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20 aplus01 (71) - North Carolina, USA - FEB 26, 2012
Great grassy fresh hop aroma. Moderate bitterness. Perfect balance of maltiness and hoppyness to create a dangerously drinkable beer.

22 oz bomber. Pours deep gold. Aroma is caramel and bready, with citrus and floral notes. I taste sweet caramel malts and bitter resinous hops. Mouthfeel is a bit thick and sticky.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20 hopnpop (69) - Wexford, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 21, 2006
Poured deep gold & coppery with a strong, sustained head. Nose of grapefruit and fresh cut grass. Initial taste of wood, pine & grapefuit finishing with a alcohol heavy, tangy warming feel. This beer is anything but subtle. Frankly, I’m surprised the IBU’s & alcohol content aren’t higher. I love it, nevertheless.

Pours a rich amber color. Aroma is malty with mild hops. Flavor is intially bitter with a mild hop and malt finish. A nice pale ale.
