On tap at the Matunuck Oyster Bar - Matunuck, RI. Fresh grassy malt aroma, with some light alcohol esters. Pourings a shining, bubbly bright yellow golden, with a clean, soft lacy white head. Flavor is very clean and quaffable. Bright clean malt sugars, singular, meet with a brisk hay and resin hop character. A nicely complementing English yeast character joins in. This is very snappy, bright and fresh. Good carbonation, cleanliness and brightness make this impressively quaffable. Finishes dry on hops and clean on a bit of alcohol. A really thirst-quenching, palatable beer.

Dec 10, 2009 22 oz. bottle. Slightly cloudy orangish-yellow with quickly vanishing white head. Aroma of hops, citrus and floral, slightly sour, sweet corn malt. Taste is blander than aroma, kind of watery, certainly not bad tasting, drinkable. Lemon. Very slight bitterness. Not bad but not quite decent.

Nov 29, 2009 This was more like a blond. I liked it, but it was a bit too sweet to be called an extra pale ale. The price was right though - under $4 per bomber.

Nov 20, 2009 Bottle - Light gold with foam head and some light lacing. Grassy and malts with some floral fruit note. Medium body and muddled hops. Middle of the road with nothing really outstanding.

Nov 1, 2009 Yellow pour. Grainy, malty, bready and light hop aroma. Pale hops and grainy as hell. Not enjoyable for me.

Oct 31, 2009 Bottle courtesy of Cletus. Pours hazy golden with fluffy and tenacious white head. Nose a little off, but mostly light hops and some corny notes. Mild malts and some floral presence. Understated, but nice. Very different from their "Traditional Pale Ale." Not bad at all.

Oct 3, 2009 Draft @ West in West Roxbury. Pours a clear peachish color with a tiny white fizzy head. Nose is light grain and hints of fruity hops like apricot. Palate is thin, fizzy, with a filmy touch. Flavors of light apricots and hay, with some grass notes and a light yeasty note.
