| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 2, 2007 Pours a light amber color with little off-white head. Aroma is of pine, citrus, light malt and toasted grain. Taste is much the same but it’s kind of harsh for being what it is. It’s good but good be a lot better. buckybeer (666), Eau Claire, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 31, 2007 Medium amber with a fairly big white head. Aroma is piney hops, sharp citrus, and mild malts. Falvor is just a tad thin but still very nice. Light bitter hops, bigger pine, malts. A touch of bitterness and dryness in the finish. presario (3009), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 29, 2007 Chicago Trip. Sunday 21:15. On tap at Maduro in Madison.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 24, 2007 Clear orange-gold. Extremely fine off white head settles to a complete cap leaving some lacing.
Citric earthy hops lead the nose, with a very nice bready, slightly crackery malty base underneath. Really solid APA here.
Thin side of medium in the mouth with nice balance between the hops and malt. Palate veers most toward juicy, orangish hops, and bready malt. Decent length, though a bit diffuse in the mid-palate. Finish is mostly orange marmalade hop notes.
Very fine mouthfeel with a low level of carbonation that accentuates the malt that is there. Lovely session APA that I’d love to have available to me regularly. Bottle 6 of a six pack. troyc (1175), Lubbock, Texas, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 22, 2007 (Tap) Pours a light amber color with a nice looking white head. Good lacing. Aroma is of citrus and hops, and is quite strong. Taste has a more mellow malty character, but quite subdued compared to the hops. Dry pine in the aftertaste. A pretty average mouthfeel, but a very drinkable beer. CaptainCougar (5530), Rockville, Maryland, USA
