Clear orange amber with little lasting head. Smell is mostly malty with no big hops in there. Flavor is burnt hops - bitter yet almost metallic. Not very well balanced. Overall, hoppy = yes, balanced = no

Jun 23, 2008 Lable said "Extra Pale Ale". Golden in color. Mostly diminishing off white head. Picking up scents of fruit and caramel. Seemed a little off balance at first but the flavors seemed to blend more as the beer reached room tempature.

Jun 18, 2008 12oz bottle poured into a shaker. JPVPA pours copper-colored with a medium-sized head. The beer leaves little lacing. The nose is mostly hops but there’s a subtle peach aroma as well. The body is medium in heaviness. The flavor is unremarkable except in the fact that there is an unpleasant after taste that may be due to a skunked six pack. There isn’t anything in the ingrediants list that should give this beer a dusty flat after taste. Regardless, it is what it is so the score reflects it.

Jun 16, 2008 Bottle in trade from hopdog. Thanks!
Pours reddish clear with a short lived light beige head. Smell is balanced malty with a light dull, hop presence. Taste is slightly fruity in a bland citrusy way with light sweetness and dry bitterness. Not spectacularly flavored, but some light caramelly, toasty malt to go along with the nice bittering hops. Pleasant and very drinkable, but unremarkable.

Apr 24, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Aromas of citrus and floral hop. Copper color with a two finger beige head. Near medium body with mild carbonation. Caramel malt fairly balanced with citrus and floral hop. Pretty smooth. Finish is neither sweet nor dry. Drinks very well. Overall the flavors are pleasant but not strong.
