| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 4, 2007 Bottle- Deep amber with red hints, emitting a frothy beige cap. Moderate spider web lace. Fresh out the grocery store florals in the nose, lotsa hops, burnt sugars, caramalized fruits. Tastes spicy and hoppy (pine), rye bread, apples. Nice bite to the finish, assertive, and refreshing. A good one. thanks David!

It’s a perfectly serviceable APA. Well balanced malt and hops, some citrus, a solid pale ale, especially for the 1/6 keg price. EithCubes (2166), Indiana, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jan 2, 2007 Bottle. Above-avg strength citrus and resin aroma. Expecting oiliness. Amber pour with a wee little beige head that quickly faded into nothingness. Medium-light watery body with a mf somewhere between prickly and smooth. Mild and inconspicuous. Light rubbery bitterness, a touch of woodiness, and little else. Slightly grainy. Just not enough flavor for a potentially explosive style. BückDich (4857), McCall, Idaho, USA

Caramel and amber. Light head and lacing. Nose of fruity hops, earthy and piney. Cereal like malty and light in body. The finish is average. Nice nose but not that interesting in the end. Tmoney99 (4778), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
