Light golden orange with acreamy white head. Faint hoppy aroma. Grain and citrus hops taste but a bit on the stale side.

On tap at the brewery. Nice mild pale ale. Very hoppy, but not too much. Nicely balanced with a touch of caramel sweetness. medium bodied, golden in color with a small white head. I liked this one.

Limited bottling of beer, usually available only on draft. Nice head. Darker orange body with lots of carbonation when you hold it up to the light. Very fresh hoppy aroma, which carries over into the flavor. Flavor doesn’t seem complex so I’m guessing it’s a single hop beer. Hops linger for quite some time on the palate. It’s a pale ale that, IMHO, clearly borders on the high end of the hop spectrum, nearing some IPA flavors!!

This copper ale poured with a thin off-white head and a floral aroma. It’s malty sweet and mildly bitter at the finish.

AgentSteve (1613) - SF Bay Area, California, USA - SEP 8, 2008
Pours attractive copper with an ehh shell colored head that persists and leaves substantial lacing. Great balance of light pine hops and caramel malt. Smooth on the palate and very easy drinking.

Ibrew2or3 (5777) - Tempe, Arizona, USA - NOV 1, 2007
On tap at the Schooner’s Brewery/Restaurant in Antioch. It pours a clear deep gold to copper with thin white head. The aroma is mild with faint lightly roasted malts and a faint hop presence. The flavor is really malty with some spice to pine hop bitterness. Early on the flavors are smooth and mixed somewhat. Near the finish the hops stand out a bit more with a combo of pine, spice and floral hops.
