7/27/08 on draught at the brewpub. Aroma is excellent balance, on the sweet side. Appearance is hazy copper with a well maintained cream colored head. Flavor is a sweet citrus blend with low bittering. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a medium carb texture. Overall, simple but fairly easy drinking.

Floral and citrus hops in the aroma. Pours amber with a thin head. Juicy citrus flavors of lime, lemon, grapefruit are followed by floral hops. Malt is light and unobtrusive yet provides a nice balance. Nice hoppy ale. Probably their best.

Great little take on the style, loads and loads of floral fresh hops. Delicious, with a nice complex hoppiness, lively fruit and a well balanced malt backbone. Remains dry and crisp, and masks the alcohol extremely well. Great session pale ale.

(Draft: Powerhouse Restaurant & Brewery in Puyallup, WA) A seasonal ale, Ezra has some serious issues with a funky aroma. I tried a new glass, just to be sure, and yeah, it smells like used athletic socks. I can also detect a somewhat sweet, grainy, and caramely aroma, plus some mild alcohol, but it takes some significant concentration to pick up anything behind the funk. Flavorwise, this comes across as a slightly amped up amber ale. It’s sweet and caramely, and balanced by a moderately bitter that seems to pick up steam in the finish. Alcohol can be detected, but isn’t terribly noticeable. Medium "plus" body, lightly carbonated, with a crisp, yet full finish. Hazy and amber in color. The off-white head gradually settles to a broken film, and deposits plenty of patchy lacing on the glass. Pretty decent flavor, but the nose is a real turn-off initially. Fortunately, as I drink more of the beer, the funk mellows a bit and becomes less of a factor, though never fading totally.
