Aurelius (3077) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - SEP 18, 2007
Rusty orage. Stock APA aroma - pine, citrus, caramel. Tangy, medium sweet, toasty. Good balance, not too hoppy. Some brininess. Character without offense. Good.

kkearn (1162) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 14, 2007
Draft at the brewpub. Clear amber, with a thick white head. strong grapefruit hop aroma. strong malt aroma supports the big, mouth-coating hops. Hops linger on the palate for a while, but at no point do they overwhelm. nicely balanced and drinkable.

Draft at the brewpub. Pours a burnt amber in color with a fluffy white head. Aroma is oof citrus/tropical fruits. The flavor is full of fruit and citrus with a nice sweet bite. Ther is plenty of malt to balance the overall flavor. Really enjooyable.

JB175 (1665) - Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 25, 2007
Golden color with nice sized soapy head. Grapefruit hop aroma and taste, with some pretty good malt flavors mixed in. For some reason this didn’t really hit the spot and seemed a bit off, but overall its a decent-good APA.
