Aug 25, 2007 Draft at the brewpub. Very pretty nose. Some bright fruity hops with a subtle lavender/floral aroma. Pours rich amber with nice lacing all the way down the glass. Only mildly bitter but crisp and refreshing.

Aug 17, 2007 Very nice PNW hopping exhibited in this APA and a bit more bitter bite than generally expected. Medium grapefruit and pine are evident. The suporting caramel maltiness is strong enough to do the job in a very balanced way. Nicely brewed.

Aug 11, 2007 on tap Barley Johns
a burnt copperish color w/ a small white head, good lacing, and visible carbonation. Light floral hop aroma some nice fruity notes as well w/ a touch of sweetness. Palate is pretty avg. Flavor is lightly bitter a dry grassy bitterness which really does dominate a light bit of carmel no real fruit comes through.. Pretty 1 dimensional taste. Easy to drink, and not bad, but not special either.
