COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our flagship beer is an American-style pale ale that is inspired by the hoppy pale ales of the West Coast. Features two-row malted barley, caramel malt, and wheat malt. Magnum hops for bittering and the traditional pale ale hops of Centennial and Cascade for flavoring and crisp, citrus aromas.

GT2 (3970) - USA - DEC 24, 2010
Tap at the brewery in Jax. Poured a clear, glowing, orange amber with a thin white head. No retention or lace. Aroma of malt extract, floral hops, sweet orange, sickly orange candies. Taste is heavily nutty bitter, walnut skin bitter. Mouthfeel is chalky, spritzy, lots of seltzer and tonic water.

Forget the fanciful critique on this one. Just drink it, it’s that good! Just flat out enjoyable!

Oakes (10191) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - APR 6, 2012
Golden-amber. The aroma is quite toasty with lots of earthy hops. Quite dry and well-balanced. Good pale, drinkable and executes on this pocket of pale quite well.

hopscotch (7535) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - MAR 20, 2012
Draft… CCB Hunahpu’s Day 2012... Clear, textbook amber ale with a small, wispy, white head. Good retention. The bouquet is a satisfying marriage of cookie and caramel malts to floral, citrusy hops. Medium to full-bodied with stinging carbonation. Citrus bitterness supported by caramel and toffee sweetness lends to a nicely rounded flavor that tilts only slightly toward the bitter side of balance. Short, crisp, clean finish. Excellent, refreshing American pale ale.

Draft at Brass Tap (Wesley Chapel). Pours a slightly clouded copper orange color. Decent foamy white head with sparse lacing. Crisp citrus hop aroma and flavor. Nice, straight forward pale ale.

burg326 (1113) - Florida, USA - MAR 12, 2012
On tap at Brass Tap for Local Takeover Night, poured a nice dark amber color, with aromas of sweet malt, toasted caramel, citrus, and pine hops. Flavor is lots of malt, caramel, and citrus. Nice sessionable beer that I wish they sold down here.

Beershine (4741) - The Sunshine State, Florida, USA - MAR 11, 2012
Draft at 7venth sun. Dark pure amber glass. Scattered lacing. Toasted caramel malts, and friendly English hops. Sweet malt sugar undercurrent, and a crisp, dryly bitter, hoppy finish makes for an exquisite balance even an Englishman would like. Well-constructed, solid. The name says it all. This is a very accessible, no-nonsense beer. More, please! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Jlo7399 (169) - Florida, USA - FEB 28, 2012
Pours copper with white head. Aroma is citrus peel and piney hops. Taste is mild hop bitterness with a nice malt backbone. Palate is light and carbonation is standard for the style. Very enjoyable, and awesome it’s in the can.

markwise (2914) - North of Tampa, Florida, USA - JAN 4, 2012
On draft at Intuition. Pours a light amber color with an off-white head. Nose is some grass along with notes of citrus, orange, and some kumquat. Flavor is similar- nice malt presence with some orange and citrus. At 5.5%, this is a wonderful session ale. Light in body and finishes with lingering citrus hops.
