Sampled on-tap in Philly. Pours clear gold. Nose is very sticky sweet pine hops. Strong but not really overdone. Flavor is very hoppy, yes. But it seems to drop off a bit and shifts to a slightly earthy and dirty edge. The hops seem to still stick around though. Just not as clean as I would like overall. Feel has a good carbonation. Overall a decent brew, but the odd dirty edge kind of ruins it a bit for me.

Blah. I expect great things from Yard’s and this beer let me down. Aroma was faint but could pick up some hops. Pour was a nice light gold with a huge 3 finger white head. Taste was very stale. Heavy carbonation that doesn’t let the flavor come through. Light hoppiness in the aftertaste but all in all not much to talk about.

bottle on 1/20/08. a very refreshing pale ale that is full of citrus and grapefruit flavors. pours a hazy golden with a huge head - a bit too big. slight hop notes come through... overall a great afternoon session beer.

12 oz bottle. Bottle was almost a gusher. Poured almost all foam and took quite awhile to subside. Once it did, hazy orange/golden in color. Aroma is citrus hops with some sweet pale malts. Taste is citrus, a touch of floral, as well as light malty sweetness. Light to medium bodied, nice firm bitterness. Not too bad, but I think I would enjoy this if it was fresh.

I think this beer may be a bit old. The pour is of a medium to light gold with a nice white head. Aroma is of pine, grapefruit some malt and a bit of hops. Flavor is similiar with the grapefruit really standing out. However, there is a touch of sourness to this beer that I don’t perticulary like. That could be the oldness of it kicking in.

Bottle. The variety case was filled Jun 27 07. Aroma is a nice citric pine hop blend. Poured a yellow-amber color white head. Flavor is absolute hoppness citrus and pine and toast malts. Palate was crisp and relatively clean finishing. Overall, I’d have to say this is pretty good for a base pale ale.
