Had it on tap at Candlelite in Chicago, poured a clear yellow with a medium head and even lacing. The taste is light with a cascade hop finish. A perfect summer beer.

16 oz can from trade with dforonow. Pours a mostly clear golden orange color with a small fizzy head that quickly fades. Aromas are wet grass, citrus, flowers, and grapes. Taste is hoppy without much malt to balance. Surprising that this can be called a Pale Ale and not an IPA. Light sweetness and light bitterness. Hops are very present, grassy, floral, and citrusy. Medium body and a fizzy mouthfeel. Overall, slightly disappointed. Seems more like a slightly average IPA than a top rated Pale Ale. Not a big fan of the fizzy carbonation.

Everything a Pale should be----fantastic aroma/ beautiful effervescent head/ hoppy up front with just enough bitterness in the finish/ refreshing and satisfies the craft drinker who loves sizable pale ales

Draft at The Emerald Loop. Pours a clear amber with a medium white head. Aroma is lots of hops and huge notes of grapefruit juice and rind. Taste is grassy hoppy bitterness with lots of pine resin, floral notes and citrus notes. Finish is balanced and mild. Really nice.

Daytonbeer (388) - Ohio, USA - MAY 17, 2013
Pours golden brown with white head and nice lacing. Aroma is light with citrus and pine hops. Taste is the same with some must and malt that is quickly over powered by English bitterness.

Nate (3326) - Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 14, 2013
On tap at House of 1000. Fresh citrusy hops, bursting with aroma. Light grassy notes, really pops. Orange blossom and ozone. Pale golden clear with pillowy white lacing head. Medium-light body with medium carbonation - smooth. Starts dry with tons of hop flavor. Bright, citrus, pine resin, and ozone. Dry finish with tons of hop flavor but not much bitterness. Nice dry APA.

[5/1/13] Draught at Mikkeller Bar in Copenhagen. Clear orange amber color. Hoppy aroma, citric and a bit tropical. Bitter hoppy flavor, somewhat citric. Medium-bodied. Quite good and easy-drinking.
