Commercial Description:
We Consider this an extreme version of an American Pale Ale. It has a very up front floral and citrus aroma from a late cascade addition and dry hopping with Amarillo. This beer also has a big malt background to balance the bitterness of the hops. The rye malt cleans up your palette after you swallow so the hop flavor does not stick in your mouth too long.
Now available in bottles.

Pours from a a 12oz bottle a nice copper/straw color with a small white head. Aroma is a nice hoppy, citrus and floral. Nice tasting pale ale that picks up the citrus and floral scents to make this a very drinkable beer.

Bottle. No head. Hazy amber body. Sweet floran aroma with notes of oranges. Fruity floral flavor with low carbonation and a short sweet aftertaste. Nice hops bitterness and a good balance between sweet and bitter flavors.

Pours a light brown with an aroma of floral hops and malt. A little fruity and very good balance in the hop vs. malt category.

12oz bottle, from TURDFERGUSON, thanks Sam. Poured gold with a white head. Slightly sweet aroma. Nice littlt hop bite to go along with the rye, very smooth and drinkable.

Near clear orange pour with thin off-white head. The floral hop aroma is not overbearing at all. Big hop profile is semi-well-balanced with the malt. Decent APA, though I don’t care much for it.

12 oz. bottle. Don’t know how I haven’t rated this. Orange/amber color. Thin, white head. Malty aroma with some citrus hops. Flavor is a good balance of earthy, piney hops with some sweet notes. Finish is slightly bitter. The beer that put Terrapin on the map back in 2002. Great go-to beer.
