Nov 9, 2007 10-13-07 bottle.
Thick, murky sppearance - lots of sediment. Very foamy head (similar to the consistency of whipped cream) at first. Orange amber color. Smell is very grassy. Decent taste - fairly muted though. Just okay overall for me. I expected more.

Nov 8, 2007 Pours a nice foggy gold with a minimal creme head. Nose is mild with a slight citrus tone. Not much to it really. Flavor is bitter hops with a leafy, earthy edge. Feel is a bit thicker on the liquid and the carbonation is decent. Overall a fairly good one here. A bit bitter and lacking a smooth even profile, but nice enough to try.

Nov 1, 2007 Bottle. Pours very hazy burnt orange with a thick slightly off white head. Aromas of lemon and flowers. Nice change of pace hop aroma. Taste is citrus, more lemons, with some earthy malt. Not real bitter, just enough. A little thin, but not bad, overall, I really enjoyed this and will drink often.

Oct 24, 2007 Bottle: clear amber color, lasting white head, floral hoppy aroma, taste is mostly hoppy with a bit of a malt presence, slight bitter finish, not a bad APA but nothing I’ll buy again.

Oct 21, 2007 A little on the hoppy side. Feels out of balance. The hop presence is nice, but could use a little biscuity-malt flavor to even it out. Just ok.

Oct 21, 2007 Orange and a little cloudy- the sign of a good ale. Aroma is Americana hops. Flavor between hops and sweet malt balance quite well and a little on the dry bitter side. Most importantly it finishes clean and drinkable. Mt favorite Michigan pale ale.

Oct 14, 2007 Orange amber sedimenty laden hazy pour with about the biggest meringue like head ever.. Ridiculously carbonated and a HUGE psssstttt sound when popping the cap. Also underfilled bottle. Very strange. That aside it had an earthy, grassy hop aroma and flavor, along with a very light sweetness. Big hop flavor, mild bitterness, kind of over carbonated and felt like champagne in the mouth towards the end of the glass. Flavor needs a bit more body, sweetness, but still a good pale overall.
