| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 25, 2008 500 ml bottle: poured cloudy orange with a thick light tan head. Very robust scent of citrusy, piney hops. Very pale ale-ish. And very nice. Flavor is mostly piney hops, citrus, little malt, and little sweetness. Quite dry. A bit too dry for my taste but still a very nice, satisfying beer. vyvvy (2034), Hazelwood, Missouri, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 24, 2008 Pours amber with a soapy tan head. The aroma has green floral hops, pineapple, tropical fruits, light caramel malt and a bit of butter. Medium body that is lightly biting with some light sharp carbonation. The flavor begins a bit sweet with the malt and then grassy and spicy with the hops and there is also a bit of resin. The finish is fairly dry, earthy, piny and bitter. It is good, but not great enough to claim "all others pale". Beerdedone (1873), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 20, 2008 Poured an effervescent orangeish golden with a fizzy off-white head. Decent yet somewhat faint aroma of some grass and light pine, with a touch of biscuit dough malt. Flavor is better, with notes of citrusy lemon and grass and piney hops, with a touch of sweet malt, though perhaps not as much as I enjoy in my favorite APAs. Overall a good APA, especially for a non-American brewer (leave it to Mikkeller, it seems). However, not the absolute best I’ve had, and I’m not convinced quite that "all others pale". I’d drink it all the time if I lived in Denmark, but I don’t feel the immediate need to go out of my way for it again here. jerc (3888), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Similar flavour, grassy resin, light herbal character to the hops. Average palate. Pleasant but surprisingly average. Bottle, Coles IPA Festival, Buffalo
