Nov 28, 2009 0,355 l bottle, bought at Biererei, Vienna.
Golden, minimal opalescent body with a superb creamy and foamy white head what diminishes to a delicious lacing one. Nice fruity aroma with grape and citruses, resiny hop, fine malt. Oily body, mild texture with easy malt flavor, fruity tastes of grape and citrusses. Nice character of american hops in a strong, powerful but balanced bitterness.. Fruity-bittery aftertaste. Nice ale!

Nov 16, 2009 12 oz. bottle: Pours a shiney light orange with a bit of a haze and a bright white head. Fruity, hoppy aroma that reminds of honey melons and citrus, with a little hint of caramel and bananas. Primarily piney/citrussy/woody even perfumy hops in the flavour - Cascade all the way. Just a little caramel accent coming from the malt. The carbonation is pretty strong and contributes a light acidity, but the finish seems a bit watery. A crunchy bite of hop bitterness, but not overly bitter.

Nov 16, 2009 Stumpy 355ml bottle, as pictured.
Pours a slightly cloudy pale straw yellow with a big, frothy white head with great retention and decent lacing.
Hoppy pale ale character is immediately recognizable on the nose: citrusy, grapefruity hops dominate, with some herbal spices thrown in.
Smooth, thick mouth feel; medium-bodied pale ale, rather low carbonation.
One of the hoppiest IPA’s I’ve yet tasted: sour grapefruit and spicy herbs/woody notes all over the palate, with a nice moderate bitterness on top and a sour, citrusy finish. Very, very nice. Refreshing, multi-levelled pale, very well balanced, highly sessionable. Another great American beer.

Nov 13, 2009 650 ml Bottle. This is fun, light piney, citrusy hop aroma with some cookie. Nice bitter sweet balanced taste with decent mouthfeel.

Anchor sort of opened my eyes to american brewing, and a new world of beer:-)
My first rating of this, and it is a few years since I tasted it last, so I can’t quite remember what it’s like.
But off course it is still a good brew. Today maybe not that earth rocking as it was some yeats ago, but still a very good beer.
Very light gold, with white head that dissappears.
Hoppy nose, flowery AND piney. Creamy with high carbonation.
Very fine Pale Ale.

Nov 12, 2009 A dark straw gold color, a bit hazy. Well-hopped, with a taste of grapefruit. Not great, but pretty good.

Nov 8, 2009 Pours a hazy golden amber with a medium sized, frothy blanket of head that leaves some decent lace. The aroma is warm and malty, with grass and citrus. The flavor is similar with a bitter finish.
