Jan 14, 2008 Good beer. I haven’t been that impressed with Kona to this point but enjoyed this one. Comparable to other solid pale ales. Light brown color with a thin head. Slight hop aroma - pleasant and fragrant. Sweet malty body very pleasing to the palate. Drinkable and appropriately complex for this style.

Jan 8, 2008 This one knocked out Deschutes’ Mirror Pond as my favorite American pale ale. Bitter, but more balanced without the syrup-y aftertaste.

Jan 1, 2008 not a bad pale ale per se. decent malt profile a bit like caramel. decent hop profile along the grapefruit line. nice copper color indicitive of decent. refreshing, a touch velvety with adequate carbonation. a little extra fruit punch in the finish with a hint of bitters.

Dec 28, 2007 Excellent hop aroma and bitterness throughout. Malt profile held up fine. I’m thinking that this would be an IPA if it were brewed in BC.

Dec 27, 2007 Had this on tap at Walt Disney World’s Polynesian Luau - so I must admit the rating is a little biased by the good times. Strong caramel malt base, medium bodied. Really well hopped - almost IPA in essence. Grapefruit bite without the sting. Well built ale.

Dec 26, 2007 Poured amber with a small fluffy off white head. Aroma of hops. Good balance of hops and malt.

Dec 13, 2007 On tap at San Diego Brewing Co. Pours with an orange-amber body topped by a thin, white head with a little bit of lacing. It’s slightly sweet and malty with a slight toffee note and very little hops. There is a slight grainey note that is not really appetizing. Medium bodied and smooth.

Dec 11, 2007 Picked up a single 12-oz bottle at the Papago Brewing Company tavern in Phoenix, AZ. Pours a clear copper amber brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a fine film and white ring with some spotty lacing. Aroma of light citrus zest, some caramel malt, a touch of peach and light pine. Taste is medium bodied, lightly carbonated with a citrus zest with caramel malt flavor. Finish is semi-bitter, with a sweet grapefruit zest aftertaste.
