[Cask at GBBF 2005] An orange beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with pirmary notes of caramel, but also light notes of hops. THe flavor is sweet and again with primary notes of caramel - it is so sweet, that the mouthfeel is sticky, and there is not enough hops to balance the sweetness, but it is still OK.

(draft) Cloudy amber body with off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit, caramel, light herbal. Light-medium body. Very mild for an IPA, even for an APA.

Cask @ GBBF Some hop and fruit, bit of tea, dryish hoppy finish intensifies. Amber colour, not bad, but after half a dozen USA IPAs the sickly cloying nature of them becomes a bit much

22oz bottle acquired in trade with ppoitras (thanks!). Poured a medium and hazy amber color with a large sized (4.5 finger) off white head. Aromas of pine, grapefruit, lightly floral and light caramel. Stronger floral tastes with caramel and very light citrus. Medium sweet and very lightly bitter. Hoppier aroma vs. tastes - tastes where a little bit of a let down as I expected more of a hop presence. Thin body.

Bronze color with a lacey white head. Big hoppy aroma from the time I uncapped the bottle. Light citrus and thin malty body finish a soapy bitter. Lots of off-flavors and a need for more balance hurt this beer the most.

Cask@GBBF 05’. Not too bad, but a little bit unhoppy for an American pale ale. Sweetish, with hints of pine and citrus in the finish. More maltier than expected and less hoppy. Perhpas it was the expectation that made me not like it so much.
