On tap at Clark Street Ale House, Pours a slightly hazy glowing orange with a small off white froth. Aroma has a nice distinct caramel sweetness with a citric grapefruit balance of hops. Still a fair amount of pine comes through. Very earthy hops in the flavor that never got too bitter. Very easing drinking with a strong malt profile that is surprisingly strong against the hops. A tiny bit of spiciness in the finish that lingers. Medium body and a low soft carbonation. Excellent balance and nice having a not too bitter hoppy beer.

Pours amber with a light head. Smell is smooth, creamy malt and no hops present. Taste is blandish malt, balanced with light grassy and mostly unflavored bittering hops. Decent, but not something I’d recommend or have again. Kind of boring.

On draft, at surprisngly Clark St. I actually enjoyed this pale ale quite a bit; maybe because it was a little different than versions I have had recently. Aroma of caramel malt and some cascade citrus/pine aroma. Flavor was a balance between sweet malt and some hops; rather laid back flavor for me. A good easy drinking beer.

Draft. Very likable pale ale. Nice aroma of hops. Flavor was sweet and had nice hop balance.

On tap. Poured a medium caramel-golden with a dusting of dirty white head. Nose was of deep, rich drawn caramel and toffee with Cascade notes (mostly pine)... quite sweet. Sweet caramel and pine in the flavor, with a solid citrus push at the back-end. Rather aggressive alcohol-fueled grapefruit bitterness at the finish. Close to medium-bodied. Caramel base could have been fuller, and the bitterness was a bit sharp. Not bad, though.

I am surprised I am only the second rater. This pours a medium gold with a red tint and a small white head. Aroma has oranges and a little bit of flowers. Taste is oranges and grass. There was tons of thick lacing. This is really smooth and light on the hops. Slightly bitter finish.

Light amber colour. Sour fruit aroma (grapefruit). A little unbalanced towards bitterness, slightly wet finish. Not much else going on.
