| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 4, 2007 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. DeadGuyFrank (347), http://westchesterbeer.com, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 4, 2007 Consumed while up at Citizen’s Bank Park, watching the Phils lose game 2 to the Rockies, joy! In any event, it poured yellow-amber in color on draft, nice initial head and good lacing. The aroma was citrus hops, light fruity esters. The flavor was citrus hops, light pine, but ample malts underneath, almost sweat bready-like. No idea why this didn’t score higher, I enjoyed it. alobar (1016), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2007 Pours a clear orange color muted with yellow undertones, No head, Limited lacing. Aroma of citrus and some hops-but mild. Pervasive citrus taste with a mild hoppy bitterness at the end. Refreshing. Aurelius (2647), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 18, 2007 Clear, yellow-orange, fizzy but no head. Bright citrine. Super fruity, fuzzy navel aroma. Tastes like piney orange and lemon jello. Crisp, moderately sweet, nice hopping. Mouthy but still servicable for an extended session. The occasional off flavor here and there in teh toasty malt, but nothing too bad. This one grew on me. On tap, Philly. awwshiz (76), USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 12/20 | Sep 2, 2007 Very bitter, but I don’t think it was due to the hops. The skunky, bitter aftertaste lasts longer than one would like kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

hazy yellow, thin white head, touch of lace sliding down the glass, nice floral hop aroma with a hint of sweetness, light body, nice hop flavor and a long bitter finish, just a bit of sweet malt upon warming adds balance
