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.

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

13-NOV-2009, bottle @home. 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.

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

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.

Easy to drink and delicious, an excellent pale ale. Very drinkable, hazy orange hue with a white head which is mostly gone in about three minutes.

Hazy orange beer with a large, lacing head. The scent is filled with grassy and piney hops, and some mandarin. The taste has some piney hops, bready malt. The mouthfeel is a bit too carbonated. A rather good beer for regular consumption.
