May 29, 2008 A great APA made in Denmark. Beautiful pour. Orange with a small head and tight lacing. Orange citrus aroma. Taste is very hoppy...just the way I like them. I just finished mowing and this hit the spot.

May 29, 2008 Updated: Jun 3, 2008Bottle. Probably the most disappointing beer form that brewer that I tasted. Pours with an orangish color. Aroma is of lemon, and aggressive hops. Flavor is pure hops bitterness with a very thin body that does not support the flavor profile. tastes like a badly done West Coast IPA. Very one dimensional and surprisingly bad., especially considering the steep price.

May 28, 2008 Updated: Sep 6, 2008Pours an orange color, moderate sized head with a nice grapefruit hoppy aroma. A lot of grapefruit hops in the flavor as well, a little citrusy with quite a bit of bitterness considering this is a Pale Ale. Light malt backing but not a lot, which doesn’t bother me. A very nice Pale Ale that really has enough flavor to compete with some IPAs.

May 28, 2008 bottle. average fizzy, off-white (some lasting) head with decent lacing into clear copper body. aromas of moderate citrus hops (grapefriut) and moderate malts. (possibly a touch of ginger?) flavor is moderately bitter throughout. long finish duration. slightly above average carbonation. moderately dry tuxture in the mouth. may be my favorite american pale.

May 26, 2008 Bottle: Pours a cloudy orange/amber color with a medium-sized white head. Massive hop notes on the front line with a bit of a citrus malt following. Medium bodied mouth feel...flavor hints at a fine malt base with a dry, bitter hop presence throughout.

May 25, 2008 BOTTLE:Clear copper with rising bubbles and thick, slow white head. Aroma is hoppy in a non overpowering way, very inviting and makes me think of Alpha King. Flavor is smooth, tingly, very well balanced hops and malt. Palate is long and smooth. Most excellent!

May 23, 2008 Bottle… Miami Beach Spring Beer Fling ’08 … Cloudy golden ale with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Excellent retention. Nice aroma… hoppy and herbal with additional citrus, resin and pine. Medium to full-bodied with modest carbonation. Heavy bitterness with a pinch of salt. Crisp, bitter finish. Dries way out. Muchos kudos to mgumby10 for sharing his stash! Wish I were more of a hophead… nahhh, I don’t.

May 22, 2008 Bottle: Copper in color with a thick white head that faded. The nose was filled with flowers followed by some grapefruit. In the mouth it was dry and lacking concentration in the midpalate. It is dry throughout and finishes with an ashy flavor. Not my favorite Mikkeller.
