Copper pour with a creamy white head and lace. Light earthy hop aroma. Sweet caramel maltiness, light spice, and a hint of citrus hops. A tad thin with nice low carbonation.

Tap at the brewpub. Very bitter flavor, with little citrus or otherwise distinct hop character. A touch sweetish. Kind of farty, dryish, bitter light malts and minerals are noted.

Golden colour with a big hoppy aroma. Lots of fresh resiny pine and a soft lemon/orange citrus as well. There is a light kiss of pine as well. It’s pretty well-balanced though. Fairly assertive bitterness on the back. Lots of hoppy flavour but it comes through less on the aroma. I quite like it though.

Light amber color with a thick white head. Aroma of hops and some citrus. Maltier on the tongue than I expected. Goes down easy. Drinkable, but I wouldn’t be upset if I never had it again.

Draft at the brewpub. Pours amber with an off white head. Sweet malt aroma with citric hops, probably Cascade. Flavor has citric/floral hops up front, again I’m guessing Cascade, with a solid amount of caramel malt sweetness as well. Very nice.

Tap at the brewpub. Aroma of citrus hops, sweet, bready malt, berries, astringency. Flavor not as astringent as the aroma predicted and more of a baked malt flavor than anything else. Rather sweet. Astringency returns a bit at the finish. Not bad.

Tap @ the pub. Poured an almost clear gold color with a large white head. Big orange rind aroma with a mix of caramel malt. Orange rind and pith flavor with some pine. Light bodied with a mild-moderate long bitterness.

Pours golden orange with a white head. big grassy nose like a sauvignon blanc. some lemony citrus hints as well. taste is much the same with a good zingy flavour, light enough to be sessionable but a really good refreshing taste. Mine was gone before I knew it.
