Jul 30, 2005 Bottle: Pale golden, slightly hazy, large white foamy head, lattice like lacing, little to no carbonation. Dried hop aroma, very slight pine. Nice hop bite up front, bitterness lingers throughout til the finish. Slight malty base, a touch sweet. Moderate body and mouthfeel. Crisp finish, fairly strong, yet smooth, bitterness lingers. Enjoyable.

Jul 22, 2005 Courtesy of Pailhead. Golden in color with big off-white head, made of tiny bubbles. Nice hop aroma citrus, pine and floral all blended together. Flavor has initial malt sweetness to it but finishes all hops with a slightly skunky kick. Tastes a little musty. Nice APA just not my style.

Jul 11, 2005 From the bomber this pours a cloudy light yellow/orange, this might have been a bit shaken up, but i don’t know if it’s bottle conditioned or not. Massive citrus hops in the aroma. The sweet malt up front didn’t last long against the hops, quickly overtaken and finishes like a big ol hoppy pale should.

Jul 6, 2005 Nice large head of rather big bubbles. Nice ring lacing as it reduces. Light carbonation. Nice sweet fruity aroma with peaches a bit of citrus and a decent helping of hops. Color is a medium gold. Plenty of hops in the flavor with a hint of roastyness in the background. More citrus and a somewhat dry palate. Pretty well balanced. A bit of fruit pokes through at the finish. A very good pale ale and a great example of the style.

A very good APA.
