| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 18, 2009 pours brown gold with minimal head. caramel bubblegum nose with grapefruit hop nose. overly sweet, almost butterscotch with the expected buttery note i get from most of the beers here. sharp grapefruit shows up at fiorst taste and then is overcome by the toast and candy. went alright with my chicken and waffles.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 10, 2009 Tap at the brewpub - a fairly straightforward APA - heavy on the grapefruit flavors, especially in the finish, which has grapefruit pith hanging around on the tongue for quite some time - before that, though, there is a bready malt profile, a hint of diacetyl (which is just mild enough to work, but also makes this tastes a little more british than anything), and some mild caramel - a touch of acidity accompanies the bitterness, which compliments the citrus character - a decent pale. ratman197 (3273), Arvada, Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 4, 2009 On tap at Bull and Bush poured a clear tarnished gold with a small lingering ivory head. Aromas of orange, pink grapefruit, light pine and light carmel. Palate was light bodied and crisp with a dry finish. Flavors of pink grapefruit, orange zest, light pine and light carmel with a dry crisp lingering bitter finish. arrogantb (734), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 26, 2009 On tap at the Bull and Bush. Golden yellow color. Smells kind of bland with a hint of hops. The flavor starts out with a buttery aspect that really disappointed me but after I let it warm it up it was unnoticeable and the flavor became more fruity and reminiscent of all the other Bull and Bush pale ales and IPA’s, I wonder if the yeast is the common factor? This beer also had a nice bitterness to it.
