kiefdog (1826) - Tampa, Florida, USA - JAN 23, 2009
12oz bottle courtesy of dakid. Pours a hazy caramel golden color with a one finger foamy white head that settles quickly. Aroma is sweet and hoppy with notes of fresh flowers, spice, citrus (especially grapefruit) and some slight maltiness. Flavor is sweet and hoppy with notes of caramel sweetness, honey, grapefruit and citrus overtones, and a slight bit of grass, hay and yeast. Generally light to medium body with a sweet and floral hoppy finish.

OzarkElmo (237) - Poplar Bluff, Missouri, USA - JAN 20, 2009
UPDATED: FEB 23, 2009 Pours a slightly hazy light amber, almost golden in color. Grainy, crisp aroma. Moderate head with good lacing throughout. Lots of hops evident. Very good going down, bitterness throughout. A very good APA IMO. Will definitely buy again. Bought it at the only place in our town I could find. Will make sure they keep carrying it. To me a good value for $1.25/bottle including tax - Cheers!

MONZA (18) - Kansas, USA - JAN 18, 2009
Overall a nice APA. Well attenuated, but not overly so. Good balance of maltyness and IBU / astringency. Hop finish could be a bit more for a dry hopped style, but is nice nonetheless. Nice lacing through the whole glass. Definitely invited back to my beer fridge.

unclemike (1363) - Ft. Riley, Kansas, USA - JAN 17, 2009
Slightly hazy golden amber with a small creamy white head. Slight floral hop tones with some grainy maltiness behind in the aroma. Mundane malt flavors, spritely grassy and bitter hop character. REsidual bitterness and some husky astringency in the finish. Mouthfeel is light medium, fairly crisp.
