Blonde, weak head. Hoppy classic aroma. Dry hoppiness with an offtaste of something you might find behind your back teeth the day after a meaty dinner... Thin body.

on tap at jp macgrady’s, body was a pale gold capped with a thin white head giving off a citrusy hoppy nose that was pretty weak. flavor was all hops and lemon peel. pretty much no malts at all, bitter hoppy tail ends what was a pretty boring brew.

Sort of a ho-hum and unremarkable APA. Slightly acidic (sour) and a bit grainy in the aftertaste

Pale golden, low head. Hoppy but a lifeless aroma of lemon-peels, graoefruit and hay. flavour of grapefruit and green hops. The body is really thin and the malt is quite hard to detct. Short grapefruity finish.

It seems like Anderson Valley has its own uniqueness to it. It has that wierd coppery/metallic wierd grainy malty flavor to pretty much all thier beers. This one is certainly no exception. Pours a very light amber- more of a light copper color with a pretty decent head. Aroma is metallic and earthy with hops and a little bit of flowery hops in there as it warms. Flavor is lightly malty, light biscuit, some metallic hints, hoppy, a little bitter in the end. Finishes crisp and dry with a metallic aftertaste. Reminds me of a pocono pale ale overall.

I love the golden color, the pure white foamy head, the light hop scent, the fruity malt profile. It’s light enough to serve as a refreshing summer session beer. Bit overpriced though for what it is.

A light hoppy ale, with some malty fruit notes. A poured a clear golden color with a nice white head that seemed to have good retention. A nice mlaty aroma.

sweet floral banana nose, like what I’d expect a fragrant fruity tea to smell like, white lacey head, clear golden body, good hop bite in th einitial flavor, finish is kind of a skanky malt flavor, not a bad pale, but i probably won’t buy it again if that’s any indication, bought this at sundance and everybody in the store was yelling happy birthday, i fucking love eugene
