| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Mar 29, 2009 Not much to the nose. Hinted a little of citrus and malt. Clear light amber with small off-white head that dissipated quickly. No lacing. Decent flavor up front with some citrusy hoppiness followed quickly by biscuity malt. Flavor ends about mid-tongue with no follow through taste. One of those iffy beers. I’d buy it again IF it was one of the last beers in the store. EithCubes (2171), Indiana, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Mar 28, 2009 Bottle. Nose is all about the crystal with some very strong, twangy grapefruit overtones. Copper-golden, flat-looking except for the lovely, lacing, rocky tan head. Clean and very dry, extremely smooth, with mouthfeel tasking precedence even over floral taste. Finish is dry and very gradually bready. Only low bitterness, lightly woody, and the citrus fruits are slowly backed off. Balanced and actually subtle! One of the gentlest pales I’ve had and, dare I say it? Unique. alexanderj (2281), Chino Hills, California, USA

Aroma of bread, earth, caramel, with some light orange and flower notes. Flavor was lightly sweet and a bit watery. Really not much going on here. Bready with an earthy, dry hoppingish finish. Not really feeling this one at all. troopie (906), USA
