Apr 21, 2009 Pale amber pour with significant head that leaves great lacing.
Spicy and floral hop aroma hits first. I’m guessing the spiciness is actually from the juniper. Big sweet toffee malt follows. Well balanced, if perhaps a bit too heavy on the malt.
Flavour is first of all some sweet bready malt, followed by a dry spicy note from the juniper. Good hoppy bitterness makes for a long-lasting finish. Great complexity for what is often a simple style.
Creamy mouthfeel, but more carbonation than necessary.
Quite impressed with my first Rogue.

Apr 19, 2009 [1989-20090205] 650mL bottle. Fruity fresh hops aroma with some yeast and something that must be juniper. Hazy, medium orange body with a medium-lasting creamy off-white head. Basic pale ale flavour with yeast juniper hints. Light-medium body. Fair.

Apr 13, 2009 Slightly hazy orange beer with big white head that quickly dissipates. Orange and lemon nose, also floral and berry; sweet. Flavor is sweet upfront, fading to a brief citrus, and a quick hop bite that lingers in the aftertaste. Dry finish. A fuller body than the first time I tasted it improves the experience. I’ll also give it an extra bonus point for being what I call "highly drinkable".

Apr 12, 2009 At the tasting session by Joes. A clear yellow/golden colored beer, with a big white head. It has big bubbles. The aroma of malts with fruits like peach and citrus. The taste is dry bitter. It has fruits like peach, pines and citrus. There are spices in the back. The aftertaste is long time bitter with some sweets.

Mar 21, 2009 Bomber bottle. Pours a pale golden with a medium frothy white head that leaves behind good sticky lacing. The aroma is a floral hop and hay. The taste is a bitter hops with the juniper berries in the finish. A good american pale ale from Rogue.

Mar 20, 2009 Interesting Aroma scores in the previous ratings. I have to side with the folks scoring 6 and under. I do not get any berry flavour initially or in the mid palate but it bursts in the after taste. I would like it to be a bit dryer and a tad more alcoholic. Its nice.
