clear yellow, nice white head, big sweet hoppy citrus, aroma, nice hop flavor, lots of grapefruit character, the perfect touch of sweetness, light lingering bitter finish, boldness wanes after first couple of swallows, needs more investigation
upon closer inspection consisting of several (expensive) pints while playing pai-gow, it was detirmined that this is indeed a world class beer wih balanced malt sweetness and big citrus hop flavor that stands up pint after pint

Oct 23, 2004 Clear straw body with white head. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit, pine. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit, caramel -- decent bitterness that is not overpowering. Light-medium body. Nice balance.

Golden color. Let’s say that there is a light hoppy fruitness in the aroma; and yes, they used some aroma hops. But the body is thin, no malt, and the hop is metallic, the infusion too long. Odd.

Bronze color, sticky white head/lacing. Nose of piney hops & light caramel spicyness. Tasty west coast PA. Blends columbus hops very well balanced. Doughy malt profile with crispy hops. Good.

Jan 10, 2008 on tap-pours an off white head that laces and copper color. Aroma is citrus/metallic/pine hops (cascade, ______, English-EKG?) medium malt. Taste is citrus/metallic/pine hops-some bitterness (cascade, ______, English-EKG?), secondary medium malt. OK carbonation. [OK so its 100% centennial this batch, usually centennial/cascade.]
