| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 12, 2007 12oz bottle, pour was golden to amber, only an ok initial head and lacing. The aroma was citrus (lemons) more than anything else. The flavor was a light malt base (bread most identifiable?), full orange, lemoney citrus profile, although they didn’t wow me in the overall quality of how this thing did or didn’t come together. Mouthfeel was moderate for the style, amply carbonated. pamoja (57), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 6, 2007 Very well pouring beer. Hazy amber with white head. Lacked in hops. Dry and well carbonated. Zeswaft (1000), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 5, 2007 mediocre. it did nothing wrong but it certainly didn’t wow me. I remember this tasting a lot like caramel. mildly hoppy. dark copper color. 37steel (186), St. Charles, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 1, 2007 12 oz bottle. Hazy reddish golden with a white head. Citrusy hop aroma. Sharp grapefruit hop taste to start with a very clean finish. jwdevalue (158), Neptune, New Jersey, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Sep 29, 2007 This is part of a beer club. Had only one bottle but was decent for the price. Poured great and had a nice finish. Would do again. Sigmund (2275), Hafrsfjord, Norway
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 29, 2007 12 fl. oz bottle, thanks to BA richgo6. Clear deep golden colour, decent head. Lovely aroma of Cascade and Styrian Goldings. The flavour is also very hoppy, a tad too sweet, a hint of orange marmelade, with some "raw" alcoholic notes. Not bad though.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 26, 2007 Pours a clouded golden brown with a big off-white head off a very aggressive pour that falls rather quickly. Nose is a typical citrus hop. Flavor is smoothly and mildly sweet with an even and not overpowering hop presence. Feel is nice. Good level of bubble on the tongue with a nice liquid feel. Drinkable yes. For being labeled an extraordinary ale, I don’t find this one as such. It is still pretty good though and worth trying. (and very quaffable) BigBeer45 (686), Troy, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 25, 2007 Pours an orange with amber at the edges, white and off-white head,
aroma is a good amount of sweet, bread and some floral,
creamy in the mouth, some sweet malt, real faint citrus fruit flavors (less than the nose lets on to),
real faint caramel flavor
with some fine hop bitterness in the background that extends its purpose towards the finish,
toasted malt flavor, this pale ale has more sweetness in the nose then what I have experience in pale
ales, I enjoyed the bread and malt sweetness aromas mingled together, i wish the flavor matched
what the nose was letting on to, mouth feel is a little thin, some graininess on the palate,
not much though, interesting pale ale.
