22 oz bomber, 4.8% alc. Clear golden ale,with a nice sized, creamy white head. Lovelly hop aromas, though it is more "lemony" hops than expected in the typical APA. Very tasty, again the malts to begin with then a very very pleasing lemony hop finish. Simple but nice. Great mouthfeel..not boring. Very very drinkable stuff. This is another of those "extra" pale ales that some West coast breweries come out with and are placed in the APA category..i really think they come into their own as British style "Golden Ales" Whatever..very nice beer.

22 oz bomber from Market of Choice for super cheap! Pours the exact color of apple juice with a pillowy white head that evaporates nearly on impact. Very hopped for a pale ale and with a long, lingering aftertaste that is crisp as the fall weather here in Oregon. Perhaps my biggest caveat is that the alcohol doesn’t even register, I might as well be drinking the aforementioned apple juice. Also perhaps a little too carbonated.

From a bottle--Poured a clear copper-amber body with a small bubbly, whitish head. Hop spiced with bold Cascades that gave off a grapefruit and mild pine nose. Sharp hop bitterness up front that travels toward back of tongue, lingering with creamy yeastiness. Fairly clean, sharp NW hops presence. Finishes with little other than faint bready malt and full-on hops bitterness.

Bottled. Very good and crisp flavor. I recognize the hop profile from their Union Jack. What hop is this? I like it. Very easy drinking, kind of beer you could drink all day. With a low abv it would be easy to do and it tastes good!

Golden pale ale with a nice white head with fine beading of bubbles. Toffee and slightly nutty malt aroma with leafy hop aroma (slight citrus) Nice clean malt note with drying notes of spicy and firm bitterness. Finish: This is where this beer shines long lasting dry citrus pith like notes with some toffee like notes as well. Overall: A really well made pale ale. I would say enjoy at cellar temps makes the beer more enjoyable
