<i>Thanks to lithy for the bottle!</i>
Transparent amber with a small head, gone quickly. Nice balance in the nose between malt sweetness and some hop citrus, though it’s a little sugary. Flavor is similar except the malt dominates, very bready in the aftertaste. A little thin. Overall decent, very drinkable.

Pours a clear deep amber with firm white head. Aroma is a mix of sweet malts and pine hops. Flavor is pine and grassy hops balanced by caramel malts. Neither the hops or the malts reign, but rather blend nicely and distinctly. Dry and satisfying finish. An excellent pale ale, on par with Sierra Nevada.

Much more bitter than other pale ales, with a larger body and ABV. Very much a Stone ale.

Pours a burnt copper color with medium off white head. Aroma is mostly malty, light flowery hops, and citrus, maybe orange or grapefruit. The malty caramel slightly beats out the hops on the taste but in all this beer has a great balance, clean and smooth aftertaste with a medium yet light afterthought. One of my favorite session beers.

Pours a cloudy amber color with a nice large tan head. Has a good amount of hops for a pale ale with some citris. 12 oz. bottle

Aroma is malty with cookie and caramel with light grapefruit hoppiness. Pours a bright transparent amber with a nice white head with decent retention. Great lacing. Very malty with lots of cookie dough, caramel, and light fruitiness up front with a light floral hoppy finish.
