Excellent summer ale. Poured a golden, coppery color with a fluffy head. Sweet smell with just hint of lemon and maybe strawberry. Perfectly balance flavor and a crisp smooth finish. Beer had a heartier flavor than many summer ales but not at all overpowering. I couldn’t have asked for a better ale after mowing and weedwacking the yard.

Pours gold into a shaker. Off-white head recedes to skim surface. Caramel and citrus aromas. Crisp and refreshing with smooth caramel malt upfront and a slight hop finish.

Well balanced and refreshing - I could see myself drinking these all summer. A good balance of hops and malt. Very good.

Beer comes in a 12 oz brown long neck with orange label..says Casco bay Summer Ale this appears to be the same beer as Summerfest ale. Ok the beer poyrs a nice dark golden/lightish amber colour there is a very slight hint of haze..nice small white head that goes fast..leaving some excellent lacing. Very fresh floral hop aroma is much evident..spicy even. mmm nice swewet malts assault my taste buds first..then a nice spicyness then the hop bitterness..that l;ingers well done..different than the PNW pales i have tasted. Nice tingling mouthful feels great on my tongue! A most drinkable summer beer..one of the best I am sure.

On tap at Jonathan’s in Augusta/Belgrade. Pours golden-copper with white head. Moderate lacing. Some hints of lemon/peach. Finishes nice. A solid example of the style and a great summer brew.

A good APA. Nice hop flavor if a bit understated. Full malty taste - mildly fruity like most English-inspired New England brews. Nice backing bitterness. Golden color and medium head.

Pours a beutiful orange color with very little head. Nice clean aroma, smooth taste, quite a refreshing and good summertime ale. P.S. If you ever drive through Portland Maine, you must stop by the Brewery, they are really great people!!

A somewhat hazy deep orange to amber color with a modest head that dissipate quickly, frothy in texture, and a off color, the lace that resides is a fine thin sheet. Sweet malt nose, pineapple like aroma also noticed, fresh and clean a nice treat for the senses. Start is somewhat sweet, the top middling in its feel to the palate with a light to moderate acidity, the hops are delectable in their spiciness, dry linger aftertaste, a nice summer drink.
