Nov 18, 2006 As far as I was concerned, this was a mistake from beside the lake. It had so much against it: thinnish (despite some interest and certainly carbonation, beneath it it was on the limp side), too bitter (metallic finish), and lacking depth (some pine citrus but not enough in all the right places). It wasn’t even all that rich in color among APAs. Didn’t do it for me.

Nov 14, 2006 12oz bottle (thanks to GrbDg) poured a clear copper color with a nice white head and good carbonation. Aromas of citrus hops and sweet caramel malts. The taste had a crisp hop bitterness that wasn’t too overpowering along with some nice malts that help balance out. Overall an all around good pale that has everything an American Pale Ale should.

Nov 13, 2006 Nicely bitter for a pale ale. Grain taste comes through as well. Reddish amber color.

Nov 13, 2006 Okay... another Pale Ale that has some pop to it. These brews have changed my opinion of Pale Ales. This was nice as the lemony hoppy refreshing flavor was a great way to cap off a day without getting blasted from one beer.

Nov 2, 2006 Updated: May 26, 200712 oz. bottle. Beautiful orange with off white frothy head. Balanced maltiness, yet not much body. Bitter but not so hoppy. Drinkable, but not in my top ten. Probably will pass on this in the future. RERATE 5/26/07: Tried again after finding 2 of my EFP 6pk were replaced in the store with this, without my knowledge. 1st try must have been old bottles, as this time it is SO MUCH better! Big grapefruity hop aroma and flavor, more body. I love this stuff! Will seek out again.

Oct 26, 2006 Bottle at Brazenhead: Pours pretty copper like in color with a small white head. Smell was of a bit of citrus in it, a hint of what may have been grapefruit. Taste was much the same, a bit of hops and grapefruit in this flavor. Not to much good comes out of Cleveland, but this is one of those things.
