| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 30, 2006 Updated: Aug 1, 2006Aroma is light floral hops and caramel accented malts. Body is a murky yellow and holds a firm thumb thick white head. Fore is lightly floral and herbal bitter with hops followed by a watery middle that is adequately malty, but too carbonated for the style. It has that crispness most of the macro drinkers like and while it is not a bad beer at all it doesn’t have any real range of flavor and the bite of the carbonation is unappealing to my palate. biz82 (1328), austin, Texas, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 28, 2006 Slightly hazy amber with little head. Toasted caramel aroma. Toasted malt and caramel flavor with a smooth, mild finish. Very drinkable with a nice body. Lacking in hop character for the style though. Better than previous versions I’ve had. haddon90 (1035), Alexandria, Virginia, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 10, 2006 Got a 6 pack of this at the Whole Foods in Clarendon, VA. Pours a clear amber color with minimal head. Bubbles race to the top. Light floral aroma, with light hops. Easy to drink. Light hops, with a light dry finish. You could consider this a Light Pale Ale. bkurtz (276), Peru
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Jul 2, 2006 Poured a nice golden/copper with a slight head and light lacing. Floral aroma with some bitterness. I like it for the crisp bitterness, but something is off. Could be more balanced. Saarlander (1577), Rancho Cucamonga, California, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 9, 2006 A very bland pale ale, not a bad flavor, just not much in way of hops to this one, Abit sticky. An organic brew, I guess its got that going for it. Easy drinking. Braudog (3753), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 7, 2006 Light orange pour with a big poofy head that only very slowly subsided. Nice aroma of malted grain with a sweet edge. Musty flavor ... cereal-grain is a heavy basis, and it’s almost chewy. Hint of grassy sweetness wraps it up. I’m disappointed in this offering from Goose Island. Not bad, just not noteworthy. mdi (573), Nebraska, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 4, 2006 12oz bottle BB 07/14/06. Pours a bronze color. sinking off-white head leaves nice lace. Aroma of malt and citrus, something musk-like, a touch of cologne maybe. Carmel comes through. Flavor: a malty pale ale with a good dose of carmel malt, a bit bready, with some leafy hoppiness to it. Finishes with bitterness; which is nice...but the leafy aspect of the hops does stick around and becomes a little distracting. An average pale ale, that does achieve a good balance of hops & malt...but seems like something in the mix just sticks out too much in a bad way...those leafy hops...
