VikingHammer (362), Lynnfield, Massachusetts, USA Nov 4, 2007 Pours golden orange with a big Duvel like head. Citrus and Pine hops in the nose. Nice hop bitterness that is refreshing and clean. Very nice beer. lamas (709), Adams Morgan, Washington DC, USA Nov 3, 2007 Bottle. A slightly hazy pale-copper pour with some floaties and a finger-thick light-tan head. Pine needles and grapefruits in the aroma. Kinda thin with ample carbonation. One-sided. A light presence of maltiness at the start. Sour lemons dominate the rest of the way. This almost tastes infected, but I think that’s what they were going for. Drinkable...just barely. BeerBelcher (930), Columbus, Ohio, USA Nov 1, 2007 Another quality beer from Southern Tier. This one I don’t believe is quite as light refreshing as the Harvest Ale, but is still quite good.
Appearance is sort of a sparkling caramel color with great head formation which fades to a scummy protective coating. Aroma is light and refreshing and hoppy, with a touch of penetrating sharpness like you met get off fresh sweat or from bug repellant. This is a cutting yet fresh aroma. Flavor is light and hoppy and quite nice. Mouthfeel is very much on the light side, but is far from watery or boring.
Quite a nice beer. Recommended. chimpscampee (556), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Oct 29, 2007 Uninspired weak ale. Not bad but not one I would even bother to elaboarte on. VeloVampire (483), Parkdale, Toronto, Ontario, Canada Oct 28, 2007 Updated: Oct 29, 200712 oz bottle - pours a clear gold with a slightly orange hue. There’s a good-sized white cap that coats the inside of the glass. Big grassy, citrusy hop aroma, and a sweet malt undertone. Nice aroma. Flavour is similar, but is kind of one-dimensional. Medium body and a good fruity finish. Very fresh tasting. Nice APA overall, and thanks to my sister for bringing me 6. gearbike (413), West Bloomfield, Michigan, USA Oct 27, 2007 Clear and golden. Very smooth and drinkable. Orange peal and a bit sweet. Nothing out of the ordinary but solid basic ale. efrumtheidiot (190), Maryland, USA Oct 24, 2007 pours deep amber with a white head. aroma of floral hops. taste is citrus, a little malt, a little sweet. mid-bodied. smooth, refreshing. pretty straight-up APA. not bad, a good summer beer. vyvvy (2023), Hazelwood, Missouri, USA Oct 20, 2007 Pours golden with a sudsy beige head. The aroma has a pleasant spice, toasted caramel malt and an apple-like fruitiness. Medium crisp body with some decent moderately spicy carbonation. The taste starts off with spicy hops, light berry fruitiness, light malt a touch of wood and hints of oxidation setting in. The finish has light sourness and woody hops. Decent beer.
