obxdude10 (1389), Reading, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 15, 2008 This is definitely one of the better pale ale’s that I’ve tasted in a long time. This poured a light copper color with a generous off-white head. It left a nice amount of lacing around the side of the glass, as well. The aroma was of rich malt with notes of flowerly hops. The body was fairly full with beautiful notes of bitter hops, bread and a touch of barely. The finish was slightly dry with a generous touch of hoppiness and citrus flavors. This was a truley oustanding pale ale!
pope_phred (117), Plainfield, Illinois, USA Sep 30, 2008 BoTMC Selection September 2008: Poured from the bottle into a double-walled pint glass. Pour produced a hazy, amber body, topped with a yellow-white head of foam with abundant lacing. Aroma was a nice floral hops, which I expected from the style, along with some orange notes. Smooth flavor, with a sweet beginning melding into a soft bitter finish and minimal aftertaste. Palate is a soft blending of hops and citrus. Overall, a pleasant brew that is easy to drink and enjoy. Nejhleader (790), Hummelstown, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 28, 2008 pretty decent pale ale, has a nice hop aroma to it, decent body with a nice bit of a hop taste to it. keepersj12 (423), Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA Sep 23, 2008 Very nice ale. Hops in the aroma dominate. Taste is more complex. Starts a bit sweet and ends very bitter. Very dry in the mouth leaves you wanting another. CaryTheDude (258), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Sep 20, 2008 Very nice. Lots and lots of citrusy hops on the nose, same in the flavor. Pretty yummy overall, but the finish turns stale. Still, pretty damn aight. GMUcrew7 (200), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Sep 12, 2008 Pours copper color with small head that dissipates immediately. Great hoppy aroma with strong grapefruit backing. Pretty good flavor, nice balance of the citrus hops and a somewhat sweet backing. Has a sticky palate. Enjoyable brew.
