| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 18, 2009 Bottle… Mostly clear golden ale with a huge, frothy, off-white head. Great retention. Big-time floral, citrusy, toffee-like nose. Medium-bodied with Champagne-like carbonation. Leans way onto the sweet side of balance, offering caramel and toffee – light citric bitterness. The lengthy finish is sweet, and then astringent and dry. Bottle provided by cmillward. Thanks Chris! Cletus (5055), Connecticut, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 10, 2007 Updated: Sep 30, 2007Re-Rate: Sampled on draught at the Autumn Brew Review 2007 in Minneapolis, MN. Pours a semi-clear reddish amber brew with a decent off-white head that slowly dissolves with good retention and lacing. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, citrus peel, a touch of lemon and flowery hops. Taste is medium bodied, some carbonation with flavors of caramel malt, orange peel and a decent hop bitter throughout. Finish is slightly bitter at first and then a orange/citrus aftertaste. Hard to even tell this is an organic brew.
First Rating: On draught at the Happy Gnome. Infected beer line. Sammy (4000), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 26, 2008 On-tap at Barley John’s. Was presented as an IPA,good IBU and lots of caramel and marmelade, we know now it is a pale. Wierd funky. Yellow with a little white head and spider lace. Drying. Average mouthfeel at best and an average beer. I could drink it once but not too tasty.

Dark copper color with no head. Aroma of orange and citrus-heavy hops with a strong floral element. The floral carries into the flavor nicely. Slight caramel malt and interestingly enough, some honey as well. One of the best organics I’ve had! ratman197 (3206), Arvada, Colorado, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 27, 2008 Lakewood, Oh. - Rozi’s Fine Wines - 22 oz bomber. Nice medium copper pour with a thick off-white head that leaves excellent sticky lacing. Fresh floral and spruce aroma. Flavor has some nice subtle citrusy accents with some nectarine hints and a touch of mint with a nutty back end. Bit of a spritzy mouthfeel for an APA, but does not diminish it, Will keep my eye out for this new brewer from St. Paul.
