Oct 3, 2007 Smells of well balanced malts and hops. Nice sweet malts with a hint of bitter hops. Pours a slightly hazy copper color with virtually no head. Taste is citrus and bitter hops with nice thick malt flavor. A very flavorful pale ale.

Sep 25, 2007 Light hop nose, toasty malt. Good light-medium body and refreshing bitterness. Nicely balanced session beer.

Sep 19, 2007 Had this ber on 1/12/2000 and it was brewed by Boulder Beer Co. Aroma is a very light hop malt scent. Color is a deep gold with good carbonation and head. Taste light fresh and slightly bitter. Starting with a light body it goes down crisp. Finish is comes on with a light malt flavor backed by a strong hop bitterness that seems to get a bit stronger with each drink. It’s not as well balanced I like a Pale to be, its drinkable with a light fresh taste, but could use a little more flavor.

Sep 8, 2007 Bottle. Slightly dark orange/yellow color. It’s hard to mess up an APA. This beer was decent, but nothing spectacular. I’d have to admit that I had other beverages throughout the evening so my experience could have been a little corrupted.

Sep 5, 2007 Its got the special kick that makes pale ales great to drink. The hops and malts are great with a piney, grassy bitterness. fully mouthful with a slightly oily feel.

Aug 29, 2007 Slightly darker than a pale yellow american lager. There are some red hints in the color. The aroma has a sour chocolate olfactory. The choco thing carries over into the taste of grapefruit rind flavored chocolate. Decent carbonation. Hoppy and offensive at times. Shocks you into a reality that is almost IPA. Finish is building bitter medicine that coats the back of the palate.

Aug 17, 2007 Bottle. Pour looks a lot like a ginger ale at first, maybe a little more orange, though. Aromas are sweet, like caramel apples, but as it warms the apple juice smells fade and are replaced by some faint notes of citrus hops. Caramel dominates the flavor, but it ends on a nice little hops bitterness that works well. It is not going to blow your socks off or win any creativity awards, but it is a very solid beer.

Aug 15, 2007 12 oz bottle. Deep amber coloured brew. Rich toasted malt aroma. Light sulfur and a rich earthy/woody hoppiness. Loads of caramelly malt flavour and it veers a little too close to butterscotch for my liking. Some woody bitterness on the back. Light earthiness on the finish.
