Bottle. Pours a clear red amber with a medium to large white head. Big grain, light lemon and citrus. Medium, light hops, touch of sweetness. Finishes lightly without much fanfare, and a light bitterness.

Medium amber hue, floral hop aroma. Refreshing, lightly malty, highly bitter, hoppy. Goes down smooth.

From a bottle. Pours amber in color. Aroma is minor crystal malt caramel with a decent dose of citrusy hops. Taste is smooth and hoppy, though certainly centered on the bitterness rather than the flavor or aroma. Goes down pretty easy, but not the best pale ale. Decent.

Bottle. Poured a cloudy gold with a redish tinge. Aroma had a nice bitter note with some malts underneath. Flavor is bitter but not overwhelming, I enjoyed it quite a bit.

This from a bottle, but also have it on tap recently. Rusty red with a decent but not much more than average head. Big bakery-like malty nose. Drinks with a distinct biscuity basis but mingled with a nice metallic hoppiness. Decent APA. (#3559, 6/18/2009)

Bottle from StFun (Thanks!) Clear pumpkin colored pour, a little carbonation and a pleasant bitter orange aroma. Flavor left something to be desired; started a little citrusy and then jumped to some unpleasant sour and bitterness. Would definitely rerate if this comes my way again, considering most of the other ratings are much higher than mine.
