3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
On tap at flying saucer. Has a clear amber color with a medium white head. The aroma is verry hoppy and sweet with caramel. Good lacing on the glass. The taste is very hoppy with a dry finish. Easy to drink for a good session beer. A good pale ale from stone.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a dark copper/amber with a silky head, perfect level of carbonation, and lovely appearance. Aroma is of biscuits, caramel, and of grassy hops. Medium body. Taste is bready with grassy bitterness. Not nearly dry enough or bitter enough for an APA, it’s a good session beer nonetheless.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Attractive red amber beer with lasting fine head. Caramel malt aroma with a mild hint of yeast. Hops are mild and very slightly citrusy. Lighter than expected body but still just sufficient maltiness to maintain a decent range. Moderate finish. A good but not an exceptional beer.
4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Probably the best pale ale I’ve ever drank. Beautiful tan yet clear coloring with a milky white head. Drinks incredible smooth with just the right amount of bite. Currently my favorite.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
12oz bottle. Pours a deep reddish brown/copper that is brilliantly clear. The pour rouses a thick but short-lived, pillowy, light tan head. The aroma is both excellently hoppy and also thick with bready, doughy malts. The flavor follows the aroma - a clean, fresh bread maltiness with an excellent American hop flavor: hints of evergreen, a good bit of citrus, some herbal character, and a really mellow, resiny, hop goodness all around... At mid-tongue, the hop character peaks at a very clean bitterness with hints of evergreen spice. The bready malts carry through the finish, balancing the hop bitterness with a clever breadiness. The malt sweetness is quite low, but the beer still manages to be very malty. The mouthfeel is rich with some foaminess and subtle spritziness from the carbonation. The body is medium in fullness. Overall, a very nice, drinkable pale ale.

Bottle -- nice labelling! Nice deep amber with acceptable white head. Aroma was hoppy. Crisp spruce hoppiness in the flavor. A fine pale ale.

From bottle. Part of May Dayton Beertasting event. Pours deep copper with full off white head. Aromas of piney hops and malt. Tastes include good balance of hops and malt. Decent but not as good as Stone IPA.
