12 oz. bottle courtesy of my Secret Santa. Pours an almost clear coppery gold with a moderate foamy head. Pleasant fruity aroma. Flavors included grsapefruit, light malt, and caramel. Nice hoppy finish, but not at all excessive. They got this one right, very enjoyable.

Very pretty with its golden bronze color and raft of creamy foam. Ever so slight floral aroma. Moderately sweet malty flavor, with honeycomb and a quieted fruity tanginess. Crisp and clean, with a spicy hop aftertaste that slowly blossoms. A good introduction to the craft.

Bottle poured a clear golden amber with a large lasting off white head. Aromas of bread, light carmel and a hint of earthiness. Palate was light to medium bodied and crisp. Flavors of bread, light carmel and a hint of grapefruit rind with a lingering lightly bitter finish.

Copper colour with a generous head, this pale ale has a sweet malty nose with some hints of grapefruit. The flavor is sweet as well, with borderline over-ripe fruit tastes.

Bottle. Pours a copper color with a decent off-white head. Aroma and flavor is caramel and citrus with and decent hoppy bitterness. Strong malt flavor as well. There is too much of a metallic finish, however.
