This beer is a clear dark amber color with a medium beige head that dissipates steadily. Patchy lacing. The aroma is hoppy with an underlying sweet malt. Medium-bodied with hops, caramel malt and citrus flavors. The finish is moderately hoppy with notes of citrus and pale malt in the aftertaste. Above average overall.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 15, 2008 On tap from Pike Place Brewery on Pike Street in Seattle, WA.
This is one delicious "American Pale Ale" which usually brings what the description lists as "an assertive hop character’ to bear along with great floral aroma and attractive copper color.
This is an impressive beer and should be enjoyed by anyone who happens upon downtown Seattle area. spikester (602), Salem, Oregon, USA

Pours dark amber with a small head, good amount of lacing.
Flavor is crisp, hoppy, nice bite to it with a fair balance for an APA.
One of the best I’ve had of this type. Would love to try it on tap sometime. Will be drinking this again. Well recommended for APA fans.
