savnac (2056) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - JAN 31, 2013
Draft @ Oak creek. Clear golden yellow with a small white head and some lacing. Aroma of citrus, herbal and some caramel malt. Flavor is well balanced malt and hops with a fairly clean yeast profile. Medium to light body with average carbonation. Solid pale ale, very drinkable.

Jow (1375) - New York, USA - OCT 2, 2012
Tap at brewpub. Pours orange yellow with white head. Nice citrus nose. Tastes of grapefruit, grass, floral, grains, and light hops. Refreshing but not a lot of depth

Braudog (5025) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - SEP 5, 2012
Bottle. Golden-copper, super heavily sedimented (me thinks this might be old?). Drinks with a pleasant-enough APA citrus flavor profile, moderately creamy, and finishing cleanly. (#4765, 8/5/2012)

scarletfire65 (734) - Rockaway Park, New York, USA - AUG 13, 2012
Tasted at the brewery, as "Doc’s Pale Ale". Perfumey, floral hops. Buttery palate. Crisp hoppy finish. Light and drinkable. Tasty.

SHIG (3043) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - AUG 12, 2012
Bottle thanks to fata2683: Poured a golden with a fluff off white head. Aroma is strong on pine and citrus hops with a fruitiness. Taste is mild hops with nice malts and fresh grain. The flavor is a little let down after such a bold nose, but seems very good overall.

Ober (2763) - Bommelerwaard, NETHERLANDS - JUL 19, 2012
A clear golden/amber colored beer, with a thick foamy white head. The aroma of fruits like citrus with hop. The taste of sweet fruits, and hop bitter. The aftertaste is some sweet with bitter.

Ratman197 (7610) - Arvada, Colorado, USA - APR 18, 2012
Bottle poured a clear amber with a lingering ring of amber foam. Aromas of biscuit, earthiness, grapefruit and light straw. Palate was light bodied and crisp with a dry finish. Flavors of biscuit, earthiness, straw and a hint of grapefruit zest with a crisp dry lingering bitter finish.

BMan1113VR (7377) - Los Angeles, California, USA - MAR 30, 2012
Bottle via a trade. Pours with a murky/muddy orange-brown hued body with a lasting bright white head that leaves some lace. Aromas are of iced tea, crystal malt, medium citrus, orange, light pine, some fruity esters. Very sweet smelling with some light bready notes. Flavors are quite sweet, bready, caramel, mild butterscotch (diacetyl), citrus and ice tea. Sweet. Super lively carbonation. Not great.

fata2683 (2162) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - MAR 20, 2012
bottle pours light yellow with a lasting medium white head. Aroma is big with notes of cascade hops, lots of juicy citrus. Flavor is pretty malt forward which was a surprise given the nose I got. Lots of sweet grass and cracker notes with a thin herbal hop finish.
