Draught @ Brewpub: This one pours a hazy coppery color. It had a small off-white head that left some lacing. Slightly lighter aroma. It is mainly citrus hops with some malts in the background. A somewhat bitter taste, mainly from citrus hops with a decent malt body. A fine pale ale.

Sep 26, 2009 Growler from the brewpub. Pours a clear, pale iced-tea brown with two fingers of creamy, off-white head that leaves behind sheeting lace. The nose is of lightly resinous citric hops and sweet, toasty, biscuity malt. On the light side of medium-bodied, it is soft and slick with a tight bitter finish. Sweet, toasty, biscuity malt with a solid balance of floral and citric hops. Again, another solid session beer from a brewer that seldom disappoints in that arena.

Jul 21, 2009 Dark amber, copper color. Its a hop beer with a lightly bitter, floral and sweet hop aroma that has a bit of a sweet malt backbone. The hops are also a bit musky. Flavor has a bit more bitterness to fight the musk. But it isn’t dry and crisp like the description explains (those are relative terms but its not as dry and crisp as I would want). Loss the musky and we got a winner.
Growler, Duvel tasting glass.

Jul 20, 2009 Growler filled at the brewpub by beastiefan2k, shared about 3 hours later. Pour is almost entirely clear copper brown with a one inch white head. Aroma of resin citrus, some maltiness. Aroma initally quite fresh, then fades quick. Taste is soft biscuit maltiness, with the resin citrus (orange) behind that. Palate is pretty flat, thin to medium, almost watery at the finish. Decent enough, thanks for sharing Eugene.

Jul 16, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Lots of citrus and pine in the aroma, very strong hop aroma. Not too much malt apparent in the nose. Flavor is nicely bitter with piney and citrusy hops, a little caramel way in the background. This is a hop forward pale ale and a very nice one at that.

Jul 14, 2008 Tap @ FS, pours a clear amber with a creamy tan head, good lacing. Aroma is citrus, pine and grass, with a slight caramel. Flavor is more pine and citrus with some light breadiness and caramel, and a brief lingering bitterness. Fairly well balanced. Another solid, enjoyable beer from Free State.
