Sep 13, 2008 Bottle. Poured a clear amber with a two finger off white head. Aroma is very hoppy. Flavor is pretty well balanced with some maltiness at the beginning and a drying hop bite at the end. Medium bodied with mild carbonation.

Sep 12, 2008 I do enjoy this beer very much. Bottle from Total Wine. Amber pour with a whitish head. Very hoppy aroma and some malt in the nose. Flavor is very hoppy and some malt balances it well.

Sep 11, 2008 12 oz bottle from John’s - Pours a nice hazy amber color. Smells quite hoppy, more like an IPA than a Pale Ale. Taste could be a bit more balanced, but overall it’s a very good beer. Nice work.

Sep 9, 2008 Pours a hazy deep amber with a small off white head. Aroma is big sweet caramel, pineapple and grass. Flavor is oddly nothing like the nose, astringent bitterness and light sweetness. Finishes short and bitter. Medium bodied, sticky texture.

Sep 8, 2008 (bottle) Hazy, deep amber body and a big, off-white head with beautifuly stiff peeks. Sweet malt and green hop aroma; some citrus, grass. Flavor is hoppy, grapefruit, but also watery. Promising at first, but the flavor almost disappears on the way back. Thin, oily body.

Sep 7, 2008 Piney hops on the nose. Flavor is a good balance between the malt and the hoppy finish. Very smooth and easy drinking.

Sep 7, 2008 A more malty pale ale, yet more digestible than a Dogfish. The hop fruity blend is detectable and appreciated in the aroma and especially in the finish. Pine is there but there’s more going on than "Hey revel in our piney-ness". A finish which is properly sharp but not overpowering or abruptly stark. Good example of an APA that mixes the malt in better balance with the style’s overt crispness. An enjoyable drink.
