12oz can. Looks golden with a white head. Aroma of citrusy, floral, and spicy hops plus some pale and doughy malts. Flavor the same. Average texture. A decent pale ale.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 Motionmind (1) - Birmingham, Alabama, USA - MAY 11, 2013 does not count
This should really be classified as an IPA, but it's not going to be a sticking point.

Paid $1.79 for a 12 oz. can @ Nikki’s Liquors. Pours a clear light hazy copper with a white ring of head that develops on the top. Grassy hop aroma. Light bodied with nice medium carbonation. Very classic tasting pale ale. Taste is light citrus and grassy hop bitterness. Some malt to balance the brew. Mild lingering bitterness. Really clean finish.

Soft cloudy amber color with a lingering two finger head. Cascade hop aroma jumps out at first. Bitter to start but softens. Leaves a nice lacing on glass. Sort of a dry but sour finish. Not bad at all, I’d drink his one again.

From a can. Golden amber with nice white head leaving some foam on the glass. Primarily pine aroma. Medium bitterness, slightly grassy flavor that lingers. Would prefer more malt here to balance the hops that would also provide more body. This has flavor but it’s primarily one sided towards hops.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 auerbrau (2989) - Peace Dale, Rhode Island, USA - JUN 14, 2012
12oz Can, purchased at Kingstown Liquors - Wickford, RI. Aroma is a solid, dankish IPA, green and minty. Flavors are solid. FINALLY, someone in Rhode Island makes a hoppy beer with flavor hop additions. Thank god. The beer has a fair amount of bitterness and very noticeable biscuity malt presence. Honestly, this seems a lot beefier than an APA, but I don’t mind. I know what I’ll be buying in cans this summer. Now, if this beer could just replace anything Newport Storm makes on all draft lines, I’d be happy.
