Jul 26, 2008 Poured a dark orange that still let the light through. Smelled fairly hoppy, with a decent head on it, about 1.5 fingers. Tasted real good, how an APA should. Some muted citrus notes mainly of orange. Piney was the main flavor with the beer.

Jul 23, 2008 Bottle: This one was just your average APA. Nothing unexpected nor memorable about it. It’s the Honda Civic of APAs.

Jul 22, 2008 Bottle. Attractive aroma of citrusy hops, caramel, and graham cracker. Poured a clear dark orange color. The head was sticky, off white, and retained its height well. Some lace was left behind on the glass. Dry and hoppy as all get out. Tasted more like pine, green pepper, and grass than citrus. The malt backbone was somewhat meager consisting of weak caramel, dry cereal grain, and paper. Some mild hop bitterness came out.

Jul 22, 2008 Pours orange amber with an off-white head. Nice citrusy hop aroma with a touch of resin. Flavor is more sweet, citrusy hops with a touch of piney bitterness on the finish. Leans towards the IPA side of pale ales. A nice beer.

Jul 22, 2008 Pours a beautiful, hazy orange with a tall, off-white head. Deliciously sweet, caramel, citrus, and hop ipa aroma. So much flavor for a pale ale. The beginning is lightly sweet malt, with some citrus flavors, and the finish is an all out piny/floral hop delight. Very bitter, but an ipa lovers dream for a pale ale.

Jul 13, 2008 16.9 oz bottle purchased at Spirits. Pours a hazy amber with a large bubbly off white head. Aroma off citrus hops, caremel, grain and a very slight touch of smoke. Great body that has just the right touch of carbonation and a bitter finish. Flavor of bread, citrus rind, slight caramel that is sweet but finishes bitter and dry.

Jul 11, 2008 Pours dark amber with a big off white head. Aroma of grapefruit and citris hops with a bit of malt coming through. Taste is pretty much the same with some hop juice in the pallete and a good hop bite in the end. I think I could grow to really like this one, but for some reason, its just not sitting with me right.
This is more toward dales pale ale then alpha king. Well made though.
