On tap at the brewery. A sweet caramel toffee aroma. A small fizzy white head with some nice lacing. Pours a clear amber color. The flavor is mostly a floral hop, but has more of the bitterness than actual hop flavor. A little bit of malt, but seems somewhat unbalanced. Medium body leaving a nice manageable bitter on the tongue.

On tap at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park... an oasis in a sea of Bud. This was particularly good after a sour, watered down and skunky Bud. I’m not afraid to drink Bud at a ball game, but this one was tainted, so my palate was screaming for something to soothe the pain. The carbonation for the ball park’s taps was all messed up... beer lines were 15 people long... and then, thank god, we found the Foothills stand, a new addition this year. I digress.... Nice and particularly hoppy. Quite dark and rather full bodied for a pale ale, and more malty than some. Lasted me enough innings to keep me happy. Another great one from Foothills.

slightly hoppy dry aroma. ale is clear rich amber, with nice continuous head. balanced malt and hop at the front of the palate, slightly grainy in a very pleasurable way. this ale finishes very dryly with an amazing balance between malt and hop. a very drinkable and enjoyable experience throughout! cheers and thank you for this lovely drink david gustavson and jamie

At bp. Deep amber/orange pour wiht gooey off white lace. Nose of light hops and malt. Very good semi sweet maltiness followed by a good hop bitter finish. Solid pretty full palate and mouthfeel. Very solid drinker and refreshing.

Draft at the Piedmont Ale House on 1/25/2008. Clear amber with a sturdy, medium off white head and some nice lace. Hop dominated aroma with pine and citrus over a background of light toffee and caramel. Medium body, clean leaving a dry palate. Good flavor balance with a pleasing bitterness in the finish. Drinkable and sessionable APA.
