Bottle. Pours darker than expected. Not much in terms of aroma. Starts out watery with a faint hop bite. When it warms a bit, one can detect some maltiness. Not great, but not totally bad, rather bland.

BoTM, Pours copper with a frothy off-white head. Nose was bright and malty. Not as hoppy as I expected, very mellow. Some fruit flavor that i can’t identify. Not a bad beer, a good intro for those not crazy about pale ale’s.

Bottle courtesy of a gift from Colorado; copper in color with not much head. Aroma was light and malty; flavor was much of the same. Sweet and bready. Not much hopping; tasted a bit like apple juice. From my experience with this brewery, they need to be a bit more generous with their hopping.

From a bottle. Pours a clear copper with a white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is malty, with a light hop presense. Flavor is mellow, slightly sweet up front with a light hop bitterness at the end. An ok beer.

Orange-amber body with a half-inch thick white head which damn good retention. Aroma had a strong honey presence and a mild hop present. Flavor was very similar. I would have liked a little more hop bitterness to this beer but there was enough to balance out the honey notes. Good session beer. Full bodied though.

This would beer my favorite summer beer if I could get it locally. It has a nice mild aroma of hops with some malt too. Flavor is mildly bitter with a nice hop presence. Very easy to drink on a hot summer afternoon.
