Draft pint at the brewpub 5/14/06: Orange beer. Slippery mouthfeel. Resin is part of the hoppy essence. Hint of grapefruit bite but a very subtle well refined beer.

Pale orange, with a smallish white head. smoky, malty, hoppy aroma. Zesty, citrusy hop flavor, with elements of lemon, smoke and pine resin. clean and earthy finish (if thiat isn’t too contradictory). Fairly sticky aftertaste. Tasted at the Brewpub.

Got to talking, and this rating isn’t going to be my most professional. Floral, slightly uric aroma. Bright orang. Dry caramel, medium fizzy. Pretty good.

Highly active carbonated gold body that has a continuous stream of bubbles dancing. Hopped up aroma of lemons, lime, and grapefruit with some toffee. Flavor is more of the above mentioned with sweet carame4l and still more hop presence. A nice pale ale Ap-3 ar-6 tas-7 pal-4 ov-15

Dark caramel orange with an off white head. Aroma is caramel, pine hops. Taste is caramel, spicy hops. Simple and decent.

Draft. Pours light orange brown. Fruity hop aroma with a backdrop of caramel malt. Like the Maris Otter, this has an earthiness to the malt profile, but the citrusy hop flavors give this one the pronounced american pale flavor. Finish is crisp, bitter, with some faint dryness. Very solid and clean. Another good one from Blackstone. The cask version has a nice creamy head that laces nicely, and the cellar temp brings out more of the earthy and british characteristics

Sampled from a 1 day old growler brought into town by my buddy. Pours a copper hue with a nice,small white head.The lacing is pretty sticky when I give it a swirl. This has a very good aroma for an APA, it has the components I usually look for in the style: pine, citrus, flowers, crisp malty sweetness. The body is pretty light, I think it nails the expected palate for what it is. Nice lightly sticky finish that dries out my palate a bit with residual pine sap flavors here. It’s a very crisp, well balanced brew. I’d be more impressed by a hoppier APA, but that’s just nitpicking. This one is obviously meant to be a light, thirst quencher that has commendable flavor and it does that very well. Everything here is very clean and crisp with enough bitterness to keep things interesting. I think this is a perfect summertime session brew.
