Citrus and pine aroma with a slight malt background. Good flavor of malt and strong citrusy hops. Nice bitter finish begs for another sip. Definately a good IPA.

Very solid but average IPA. Well made and a nice pour but its missing anything to make it stand out from the pack.

Very good, highly hopped pale ale. I didn’t feel much of the hops from the aroma, not much of a dry hop. The bittering is strong, with a nice, highly hopped flavor. This pale ale hits home, with the great cascade citrus I love in a pale ale.

Bottle from a Great Lakes variety pack. Poured a clear golden amber color with very little head. A mild hop aroma and a nice crisp taste. There was a mild hop bite that rolled into a slightly bitter finish. An overall nice beer for the money

My favorite pale ale. Burning River has a nice color and a hoppy aroma, with a hint of citrus. It has just enough bitterness without being overwhelming. Its good in the bottle, but even better at the Great Lakes brewery.

Hoppy/orange bouquet from a deep amber body with a nice white head. Hoppy flavor and bitterness up front with some semisweet flavors in the back along with some toatsed grain flavors, medium mouth feel.

Pours nice burnt orange color with off white head. Aroma is hoppy, fruit and pines dominate. Flavor is good, starts out sweet ends bitter, but a very good balance between the two. Very good IPA, but there are some more memorable ones out there.
