| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Aug 6, 2008 22-Jan-08 (Draft: Duggan’s Waterfront Pub in Homer, AK) Very light and grainy malts and mild English hop aromas greet the nose, and though the beer has a nice overall aroma, there’s not enough of it. On the palate, the pale malt backbone isn’t grainy or caramely. Hops are moderately bitter, but are at the forefront and have a bright finish. Light-medium body, but wonderfully crisp and clean with a long-lasting bitterness. Medium carbonation. Golden in color and fairly hazy. An off-white head pours to half an inch before settling to a think layer, leaving lots of patchy lace on the glass. My first beer from this brewery and it’s a nice one.

Soapy, citric nose. Tart citric bitterness presides with a sharp sting. This went down great as I watched the surf on Homer Spit. Great session beer. NeonLX (258), Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 22, 2005 Fresh from the keg at Homer Brewing Co. Beer pours a medium golden with a thin white head. Floral, hoppy aroma. Well rounded taste with substantial hoppiness kicking in after a second or two. Tastes almost like a mild IPA, with a similar hop tickling in the nose as it goes down. Nice.
