Hop aroma. Golden coloured with a pine fruit flavour. Crisp and slightly bitter malt finish. alexanderj (2213), Chino Hills, California, USA Feb 3, 2009 On tap at Vista location. For the style this was definitely good. Clear, rich gold in color with a frothy white head. Aroma of citrus, flowers, caramel, apple and fruit. Flavor was really nicely balanced, although some of it was a bit unrefined. Caramel, fruit, apple with earth and flowers in the finish. doubleo (1096), San Diego, California, USA Sep 19, 2008 On-tap at the vista location. Pours golden yellow with a thin white head, specks of lace. Smells malty and slight metallic, plenty of caramel with slight earthy hops. Tastes estery hoppy with lots of caramel and and some citrus. A bit of a mess. Medium body, ok carbonation. Dogbrick (2816), Columbus, Ohio, USA Jul 5, 2008 Sample at the Irvine brewpub. Pours clear orange with a medium thin light beige head that dissipates steadily. Top ring of lace with spots under. Mildly bitter hops aroma with some sweet fruit. Medium-bodied with flavors of hops and citrus primarily, and some sweet malt as well. The finish is citrusy hops with a lingering bitter aftertaste. Decent overall.
