Mar 17, 2005 Nice gold color, thin white head. Slight citrus sweet scent. Easy drinking with just a small hop presence. Nothing special, but I enjoyed it.

Mar 17, 2005 Updated: Mar 22, 2005bottle - 3/17/05 - Pours a light amber body. The main thing I smell is citrus. As far as taste, there is a little malt (earthy), some citrus, and it’s sweet. Not complex, but easy to drink. In the finish I get a little bitter taste...not bad. It’s not outstanding, but I like it about as much as Sierra Nevada’s higher rated APA. I could drink this from time to time, and I believe I will.

Mar 5, 2005 Bottle. Pours light amber, clear, with an off-white head and good bubbling from carbonation. Nose is floral and citrus hops. Flavor is nicely balanced between sweet caramel malts and crystal hops, with a bittersweet finish. Palate is actually good with a chewy cookie quality. Quite good.

Feb 22, 2005 (12 oz) Cap came off rather easily. Pours very cloudy amber with almost no head. Smells strongly of orange rind and grapefruit. Bit of hops and citrus flavors. I think ill stick with SNPA even though this is semi-local.

Feb 21, 2005 Because I was not very careful pouring, this bottle-conditioned beer poured slightly cloudy. It is a light amber color with a medium rocky head that dissipates quickly leaving a little lacing around the edge of the glass. I detect a light caramel malt background to the primary grapefruit aroma. The flavor is slightly sweet and extremely smooth. It is initially sweet malt with a nice hop bitterness mixed in that fades to a middle of roasted nuts. The finish is long and bitter-sweet with a faint alcohol warmth.

Feb 14, 2005 Bottle, best by 2/20/05. Dusty amber body, frothy white head. Primarily bright, fruity aroma of grapefruit and pineapple, caramel malt in the background. Dissapointing flavor, has a weak caramel malt backbone with a correspondingly weak hop profile. Too fizzy to boot.
