Commercial Description:
Behold the bitter hysteria
This blessed, burnt orange, coppered colored ale lends it’s hue to hearty pale ale malts and hand selected specialty grains. Glacier and Ahtanum hops bless and balance the wort resulting in a hoppy and malty complexity.

Draft at the brewpub. This is one of the better balanced APAs I have had — neither the hops nor the malts dominated, yet both were present and not subtle. Amber/orange and cloudy with a white head. The aroma is citrusy with grapefruit and orange peel. Hints of pine, grain and caramel. The flavor was moderately sweet and moderately bitter. Yet neither was forward and the finish was mildly bitter. Very clean. Medium body with a watery texture. Lively carbonation. Very nice and very easy to drink.

Draft@ Ashley’s: I thought this was a very solid pale ale. Poured a hazy orange-cedar with steady lacing. Bit of citrus, grapefruit rind with a mild bitterness and impressively clean finish. I would seek this one out again.

On tap at the brewpub. A medium amber body with a white head. The aroma was grapefruit with some almonds. The taste was sweet caramel with some orange juice. There was a medium toasty bitter finish.

Growler. Poured a clear medium orange color. The head was white and reduce to a thin film after a minute or two. Some nice lace was left behind. The aroma was of biscuity malt and grass. Delicately sweet on the tongue. I tasted biscuity malt and grapefruit. There was some mild hop bitterness at the end. This would be a good gateway beer.
