Jul 21, 2004 Very wonderful, light, crisp ale. A good summer beer. Light golden body with a thin white head. Beutiful hoppy aroma. Not sure how to identify taste except that it was bitter and slightly sweet.

Jul 14, 2004 pours a very nice golden color, almost clear. Very little head with moderate to low carbonation. Aroma of citrus and sweet hops. Taste starts off sweet and ends bitter with a nice malty finish, kinda of wheaty like Fat tire finishes. /i love this new brew, I hope they make it into a year round beverage soon for my own sake. Thanks Deschutes.

Jul 17, 2005 Bottle amidst the glory of Denali Nat’l Park. Orange and very active with anice pillowy head. Very fruity with an interesting aroma. Almost like an orange soad at first, but then a nice herb-laden malty flavor pours thru with a restrained hop finish.

Jun 26, 2004 Pours a very nice light amber. Medium head that lasts a bit. Fresh light aroma. Easy on the hopps. Tastes bright fresh hoppy and somewhat floral. Some citrus in there as well. Not much carbonation. Finish is quick with only a little lingering bitternes. Very refreshing and easy.

Jul 13, 2004 Nice hop, grapefruit aroma. Light golden color, intriqite lacing on the glass. Nicely balanced hop flavor, very pleasant. Semi-sweet to smooth on the palate. Indulging and very refreshing. Not an outstanding beer but very quaffable.

Sep 27, 2005 Updated: Oct 10, 2007I’m older and smarter now. This is an exceptional summer ale.
Nice grassy, yet bold ale attack. Strong over the middle as a good ale should be, with no objectionable attacks or aftertastes. This is the sophisticated ale you should serve to your unsophisticated guests to entice them to consider something better.
A "Light/Lite" Ale perhaps? Whatever. Very good.

Sep 4, 2009 12 oz in two pours into a Chimay glass. Lovely.
Light, well balanced, crisp. Nice light hoppy nose--smelled a bit cascade-ish. Very clean hop punch (only slightly lemon-grass citrus--mostly crisp cascady hop) that slides out into a lovely, lingering light malt finish. Welcome, moderate carbonation through thin mouth feel. Oh and a few minutes later I’ve got the faintest sweet grass mouth taste.
I’m not sure what to do with this--I have no complaints.

Jul 15, 2005 Thanks Whaleman. Pours a med gold with a white sticky head. Nose is dry, like many of their beers, with light piney, grassy, and grapefruity hops. Flavor has very little sweetness, some intermingled hop undertones and a very crisp refreshing finish. The body is light which further helps along the beer as a refresher. Very dry aftertaste that is med. bitter. I could drink a lot of this while BBQing.
