jredmond (1015), New Jersey, USA Aug 10, 2009 Bottle. Pours a light hazy yellow body. Aroma is slight hop and bark. Taste is bitter mouthfeel. Slight hop in the finish. Rciesla (3510), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Aug 4, 2009 Bottle. Pours a darker golden body with a white head. Grassy fruity citrus and peach notes, with a lighter malt bill. A lighter citrus and peach note to finish. Good stuff. guyinchicago (516), marengo, Illinois, USA Aug 3, 2009 pours yellow with big frothy head aromas ar of citrus,grains and yeast taste is a milder form of alpha king smooth and drinkable with just the right balance would make a great session beer deyholla (507), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Aug 2, 2009 Tap at Clark Street Ale House. Poured gold with a white head. Aroma was sweet with citrus and apple notes. Flavor had hops present, first with an undertone of sweeter fruits like apples but became more citrus throughout. Kinz (2179), Glen Allen, Virginia, USA Aug 1, 2009 Not all that extraordinary. Pale orange or gold shade, decent head, clear. Aroma is grapefruit and floral hops, not bad at all. Flavor is very light on the malt, frankly it just comes across as thin bodied. The hop profile is one I didn’t care for - grapefruit and floral, yes, but it also had a cooked vegetable component that I just wasn’t digging. Almost like a hop tea. Must confess if I had liked the hop profile more, it would have rated much higher. But different strokes for different folks. Uglyradio (775), Greenville, South Carolina, USA Jul 29, 2009 Gold...White head...Mild hop aroma-floral and citrus notes...Medium body...Good balance...Light hop finish...Easy to drink...Nicely balanced pale ale... Enjoyit (1697), Vadum, Denmark Jul 28, 2009 Clear golden of color with a white longlasting head. An aroma of grass, pines and fresh hops, weak malty notes. A flavor of malt, hay, corn, hops, grass and bitter. Nice aroma but okay flavor.. CanIHave4Beers (835), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Jul 26, 2009 Hmmmm, this wasn’t very extraordinary, It’s pretty damn normal! Pours a pale color with a small head. There is a grainy malt character in the aroma with a slight sweetness and a little citrus. The flavor is very well balanced and has a sort of kolsch like thing going on It’s pretty grainy and has a low hop bitterness/character.
