draft at Taco Mac. deep golden/amber color. some hop aroma... not sure about the juniper. good solid hop backbone throughout. a classic APA feel and taste. medium body, smooth and a pleasure to drink with your lunch. nothing spectacular here, just a solid medium hopped APA that doesn’t overpower your palate nor ruin your taste for anything else. great session beer.

Draught @ Brewer’s on the Bay, Newport, OR. Pours a pale yellow color with a small white head. Sweet malty bready spicy aroma with some hoppy hints. Sweetish malty slightly spicy juniper flavor. Has a sweetish malty finish.

On draught at Taco Mac Lindbergh. Beer pours a clear golden yellow with frothy crown and slight fingery lacing. Aroma is full of plant resins, citrus hops, and a slight bit of malt in the background. Very interesting, but I would call the resiny odour pine if I didn’t know it was juniper. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with vigorous carbonation, light malt backbone, moderate hops which aren’t aggressive at all and seem to provide balance to the lightness of the beer. Finish is crisp and the only point in which you get the lingering taste of the juniper in your mouth. Not bitter at all by my palate, in fact quite balanced for my taste. Great on draught, I’m interested to taste it in the bottle.

Creamy white fine fast disappearing head. Malty with a slight hint of pine. Light to medium light body. Slightly sweet almost fruity finish. The bitterness is subtle but a little harsh. Hints of possibly apricot creamy sweetness.

This is amazing. It has a golden, amber color. With a fruity and bitter smell. The taste is amazing! Fruity and bitter but not too bitter! Great!

On tap as Rogue Yellow Snow Ale at Mellow Mushroom (Westchase, FL). Pours a clear golden color with a thin white head. Aroma is slightly hoppy with notes of pine, malt, and some ripe fruit. Flavor is much of the same with stronger malty notes and more fruit. Generally light to medium body with a slightly bitter finish.
