Pours amber with a medium lasting head. Aroma is crisp, apples, citrus and a bit of crystal malt. Flavor is fresh, flowers, citrus. More body than I was expecting which is a good thing. Smooth bitter finish. Nice.

Bottle: Pale yellow in color with smoky white head. Somewhat piney in aroma with hints of sweetness, possibly caramel. Fruity initail on palate with long lasting bitter finish.

Bottle from Secret Santa. Yellow body, with a small creamy white head. Nice citrusy aroma - lemon and grapefruit. Very grapefruity flavour, to the point of being a bit astringent. A little more pleasant as the glass goes on but still lacks balance. Average to thin palate.

12 oz bottle. This was a pretty damn good pale ale. Very nice hoppy aroma with some pine and citrus lingering. nice burnt orange pour.

Smooth, dry hop flavor, with less alcolhol and more citrus than most APA’s- it has a tangy zing to it. Single from Steves Wine on University Ave in Madison. I would happily try again.

12 oz bottle. Poured a nice dark copper, clear, with not too much carbonation. Medium head with good lacing. Pleasantly sharp citrus smell suggests slightly bitter taste to come, but that bitterness is very well balanced. Finishes nicely, with the bitters lingering for a bit, causing a just a little bit of dryness in the mouth. Not necessarily a bad thing, just take another sip. Not the best Big Sky offering, but this beer grew on me as I moved through the six pack. I’d recommend giving it more than one round to do the same for you.
