On tap at the brewpub many times. A nice easy going pale ale that isn’t overly malty or hoppy... pretty simple, drinkable.

Opal brownish tan with some redness. Creamy white head. Light subtle hop nose with some maltiness. Some sweetness and a light hop fruity flavor. Some esters. Somewhat cloying but a decent session beer.

Draught at the brewpub. Slightly hazy, orange color with white head that laced the glass. Aroma is almost non-existent with the exception of light malty caramel and flowery hops. Flavor is well balanced with malty caramel and flowery hops. Plesant bitter hop finish.

The body was a hazy dark orange witha slightly off white head. The aroma had grapefruit with a hint of toffee. The toasty taste was complemented with light oranges. This could use a bit more body, but is a decent session style pale ale.

On tap at the Brewpub. Nice amber color. No aroma. Some lacing. I suspect that they use the same yeast on this one as they do for the Wheat ale. Slight ester taste. Nothing too special here. This is brewed in a style that people who prefer color instead of flavor in their beer would like.

Orange-red with no head. Very low hop aroma, mainly bland. Sweet caramel flavor with pine and resin middles. Nice carbonation balance to this one.
