A: The pour is a slightly hazed golden orange color with a massive, rocky, white head and some sticky lacing. S: Plenty of hops to the nose. Lots of great floral and earthy notes with some citrus peel to it as well. Pale cracker malts with a touch of bread providing a light sweetness. T: A massive orange flavor to the beer--orange peel and some orange juice. Lots of floral qualities as well. Quite dry with a moderate breadiness. Notes of grass and sweetness as it warms up a little bit. The bitterness is fairly light. M: Medium in body with an extremely high level of carbonation. O: A good pale ale, though a bit different from what I’m used to. Good hop flavor, though, without being super bitter.

A - Pours a bright clear copper-orange color with finger of white frothy head. The head fades down to a spotty layer and a ring around the outside leaving behind some lacing on the glass. S - Aroma is full of citrus and floral hops. Also some nice sweet caramel malt in the background for balance. T - Starts off with a nice hit of citrus hop with come nice bitterness. There is also some sweet caramel malts in the background. Through the middle some more floral hops come through. The finish has some nice lingering hop bitterness, some citrus flavor, and a bit of sweetness that linger nicely. M - Medium-bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Very smooth and crisp. The finish is a bit bitter and dry and really nice. D - Very drinkable. Super smooth and crisp and very well balanced. Really nice and balanced hop profile.

Pours out tan, nice lacing .. . aroma of fresh tree, tea, and resin .. . very much a session beer, but contains a back sweetness that i didn’t completely care for .. . still a solid offering .. . my spidey sense is tingling- anyone call for a webslinger!

Troegs Pale Ale pours a golden amber. The head was thin. There is a fresh hop aroma full of citrus notes. The taste is well-balanced but edging on the side of hoppiness. The finish is clean with a touch of bitterness. Pretty decent, but seems a little "weak" in flavor.

Reviewed from notes. Pours a nice golden orange color with a several finger white head and a good amount of lacing as it goes down the glass. The nose brings a nice amount of citrus hops along with a tiny bit of pine. Some mildly sweet malt comes through as well. Taste brings good citrus and pine along with some bitterness as well as some mild bready sweetness in the background. Light feel with good carbonation; overall, nice and subtle, though not as good as the HopBack. Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 10-24-2010

Bottle from Cavie. Orange pour with a white head. Aroma is bread, citrus, and a little bit of vegetables. Taste is bitter, kinda fruity, grain, and butter.

Bottle courtesy Steeve. Pours a very clear light orange to yellow color with a light bubbly head. Super light aroma. I’m having trouble pulling anything out of it. I’m picking up some bits of cat litter and vet’s office? Not that that’s a bad thing but it is what it is. Light perfume as well. Flavor is dry and bitter with perfume sweetness and floral notes. Sweet malts dominate this with some easy hops. Not really holding a cascade hop flavor as it’s a bit more soapy than it should.

This is a very aromatic hoppy pale ale, the body is very light, this is extremely drinkable, recommended
