Bottle via trade. This is exactly what I look for in an American pale ale. Golden-amber color with a small off-white head. Really nice aroma of pine/citrus hops. These hops are also present in the flavor, balanced by caramel/pale malt and some light fruit notes. Palate average for the style. Not mind-blowing, but very good.

Pours a nice golden amber. The aroma is hops. The taste is a touch of pine with some hops and smooth grain. Pretty damn good.

Decent sized head with some lacing. Golden-orange body. Strong, smooth hop aroma. Hops are significant but not overpowering, with a little beat of a wheaty taste in the finish. Great pale ale, but not my favorite.

Bottle. Pours a clear red amber with a medium to large white head. Big grain, light lemon and citrus. Medium, light hops, touch of sweetness. Finishes lightly without much fanfare, and a light bitterness.

Medium amber hue, floral hop aroma. Refreshing, lightly malty, highly bitter, hoppy. Goes down smooth.

From a bottle. Pours amber in color. Aroma is minor crystal malt caramel with a decent dose of citrusy hops. Taste is smooth and hoppy, though certainly centered on the bitterness rather than the flavor or aroma. Goes down pretty easy, but not the best pale ale. Decent.
