mikey (319), farmington, Utah, USA Apr 30, 2008 Poured a deep, hazy golden bronze color with a medium ivory head. The nose was of lemon and orange esters with a sweet malty backbone The taste started with crisp, citric and piney hops. Toffee and fruit-like malts come next balancing nicely with the hops. The finish leaves me with toasty biscut and a nice hop bite. Mouthfeel is moderate to thin. This is a damn good APA. Definatly worth a try

jpm30 (1581), East Central, Georgia, USA Jul 30, 2007 From a twist-off 12 oz. bottle, no freshness date, sampled in a pint glass.
Poured an reddish orange copper with a small foamy white head that settled into a thin sudsy lacing.
Cascade hops are the first thing I noticed in the smell, citrus, pine and sweet flowery, it is quite easy to tell that this has been dry hopped, a light toasted graininess.
Steady moderate carbonation and a slickly smooth medium bodied mouthfeel, refreshing taste, toasted grains and pale malt sugary, a smooth, soft, rolling hop bitterness in the palate, pine oily and citrus zesty with a touch of rind, a dry hoppy, toasted malt finish, leaving a nice lingering sour hop, sweet malty aftertaste. One of easiest drinking APA’s I’ve encountered, an excellent example of the style.
