A: The pour is a slightly hazed golden orange color with a finger or two of white had. S: Nice citrus hop aromas followed by a definite pine character. The piney hops are incredibly oily and resinous which you don’t often find in a pale ale. Some moderate malt notes of bread and biscuit malts. T: A nice flavor, but not quite as good as the nose. Not as much citrus and the pine is not as intense either. More toward the bready malt side of things with some grapefruit peel adding additional bitterness and maybe some floral notes. M: Medium in body with the carbonation on the high end of medium. O: Pretty decent pale ale, though it’s a bit too bitter without a ton of hop flavor.

Bottle @ home. Hazy, golden orange appearance with a pearl white head. Slightly spicy, earthy, lightly citrusy yeasty, mild sweet, toffee, caramel malty aroma. A little watery. Orange citrusy, slightly spicy hoppy, sweet pale/caramel malty flavor. Ok.

Tap at the brewery. Poured a slightly hazy deep yellow with no head and no lace. Aroma is citrus hoppy, fresh grapefruit. Taste is soapy hops, citrus hops, slightly chemical. Decent.

Clean aroma of citrus and pine as well as light biscuity malts. The flavor is more hops. Not over the top bitterness, just a nice hops profile of citrus and pine as well as a nice biscuity backbone. Soft lingering hoppy resins. Really nice APA.

Sampled on 7/10/2011. This American Pale Ale pours a medium orange gold color from a 12oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head, with decent lacing. The aroma is cereal, grapefruity and citrusy. A medium bodied American Pale Ale. The malts are caramel, fruity and sweet. The hops are herbal, citrusy and grapefruity. Decent carbonation. Very citrusy but not all that bitter. Crisp and clean. Light and refreshing. A very drinkable American Pale Ale. The mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean, dry and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter

On tap at local restaurant. Clear golden amber with a fizzy white head. Citrus caramel aroma with floral hops and a decent hoppy taste

Bottle. Quite light golden-amber with a decent head. What little aroma there is is light and grassy. This drinks with a definitive earthy feel, musty and dirty, yet light and easy drinking. Bring on a pulled pork sam’ich. (#3886, 4/21/2010)
