Dec 17, 2008 Bottle pours a clear, orange-yellow color with a thin off-white head. Good lacing along the glass. The aroma is mostly piney hops and caramel malt. The flavor is and interesting mixture of pineapple and grapefruit with a definite hop presence. The bitter aftertaste also includes undertones that remind me of honey-lemon cough drops, in a good way. A tasty offering from Lagunitas.

Nov 20, 2008 Dunno what cream ale means, it usually means ’awful’ to me, but this is pretty decent.
An autumn - colored ale, very filtered, orange - yellow. Thick white head. Very rich malty aroma, with whiffs of pine present. Creamy palate, very carbonate, ticklish on the tongue, melts into a dry hop-filled finish. Caramel also present in the palate. I liked it.
7/10 aroma, 3/5 appearance, palate 6.5/10 overall 3.4-3.5

Nov 20, 2008 Tried this at Tyler’s Taproom - smelled of Lagunitas signature grapefruit and hops. Nice amber coloring. Tasted like a slightly stronger version of their IPA which is not such a bad thing. I could drink a few of these.

Nov 19, 2008 (bottle - 12 oz) Golden color with a frothy white head. Aroma is very light but slightly sweet and a little bit hoppy. Some floral and citrus notes. Flavor is sweet at the beginning with a surprisingly floral and hoppy taste following it up. Finishes with a crisp flavor of flowers, hops, apples, and alcohol. Bitterness lingers on the tongue.

Nov 17, 2008 Bottle 355 ml 7%
Appearance: Clear amber base with large creamy crown.3+
Nose: Fragrant, pleasant soft scent of alpha hops, clean, refreshing aura wrapped in sweet candy charcter.8+
Flavor/Palate : Medium full bodied. Bittering hops from first sip. They are clean and to the point as in aroma. This bitter ale has some kind of hop-malt balance despite its hop bite. Very drinkable American bitter with solid malt fundaments.
