draft. pours a nice clear orange gold with a respectable head. floral piney hop aroma that leads into the flavor. citrus and malt make for a nice balance of flavors. like a toned down IPA without the bitter finish. not too shabby.

12oz bottle, kmweaver-exclusive non-RBSG pity-party tasting 2007. Pours a clear, medium orangish-yellow color; off-white head with patchy lacing. Lightly hopped aroma: citrus and candy sugar. Medium, chewy mouthfeel: decent levels of citrus bitterness, balanced out by a slightly medicinal / candy maltiness; palatable; uninspired. Medium, citrus and sugar finish; slightly dry. It would probably taste better at RBSG.

12 oz bottle via TomDecapolis (thanks!). Pours a semi clear amber with a small beige head. Nose is citrus and floral with a little bit of biscuit. Taste is a bit toasty, some toffee, some and some grapefruit, as well as a little spiciness. Some metallic astringancy in the aftertaste...Body is medium and carbonation is moderate to high.

Bottle. Thanks to TomDecapolis. Poured a pale amber body with thin head. Citrus aroma with a decent floral scent. Flavor is slightly sweet with a nutty sense to it and some citrus hops. Flavor seems to fall flat in the mouthfeel, but overall not bad.

Pours a translucent golden amber with a medium frothy off white head that left some lacing. Aroma of caramel malts, bready along with hints of citrus and flowers. Flavor caramel, biscuit, nuts, pine and a light hop bitterness. A nicely done American Pale Ale.

Yellowish gold color with a thin white head, the hops hit you right away, which is good, but seem to fade a bit as it warms. Not all that complex, but easy to drink. Very middle of the road for me.
