Medium bodied and med/high carbonation.

Bottle Pours a hazy amber orange with a thin white head. Laces fairly well. Has a decent aroma of citrus and pine. Has a good carbonation. The flavor is good. Well blended. Hoppy upfront but ends with a good malt balance. Has a watery texture. The finish is good with a pleasent aftertaste. Has a light to medium body. This is a crisp refreshing beer.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 notalush (3617) - Denver, Colorado, USA - AUG 1, 2009
A straightforward, crisp, clean, tasty APA - not over the top with the hops like some are, which is good, since many brewers pretty much just make an IPA and call it a pale ale - smooth, clean crystal malt sweetness, with just enough of a hop bite to balance it out - lightly floral and citric in the finish - lively carbonation makes a for a refreshing mouthfeel - overall, quite nice.

Found this one bottled in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. Hazy, light orange pour with a lacy, white head, crisp, citrusy hops and grapefruit nose, excellent citrusy notes throughout, especially grapefruit, lime, and a touch of clover honey. Tight, dry finish. Excellent.
