From the tap this poured a yellow/gold body with a well-sized frothy head that did some artistic lacing. The aroma is light and toasty, sweet with a balance of grapefruit and lemon zest. The flavor is a balanced as the nose with the PNW hop bitterness emerging more in the finish. Sessionable stuff.

Draft sampler at Indy. Clear pale pour with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Moderate sour citrus hoppy aroma. Medium body. Medium bitter flavor with a citrus bitter finish of moderate duration. This was the standout beer for the standards.

IBGF 2009: Light coppery hue with an okay head and lace. The aroma has notes of bready and caramel malts, grassy and citric hops, and a touch of mineral water. The taste starts with sweet malts and the hop are noticeable but a background player. Moderate hop spice and citric twang throughout. The mouth feel is a tad chalky but fairly good for the style. An okay brew but nothing to make a trip for.

Tap @ the brewpub. Poured a clear copper color with an off-white head. Caramel and earthy aroma. The flavor is citrus over caramel. Light to medium body.

This draft brew from the brewery poured a small sized head of finely sized mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a fair lacing. The body was carbonated transparent and orange in color with bubbles clinging to the side of the glass. The aroma contained notes of mild caramel malts and hops. The mouth feel was tingly hoppy and had a mild lingering hop finish. The flavor was also hoppy and typical of an APA true to its style.
