Aug 8, 2002 Pours with little head, but maintains an invitingly beautiful copper color. The initial aroma hints of its citrusy hoppiness. Although pretty it has a light texture, the taste is wonderfully tart. Excellent.

Apr 28, 2006 Color is deep copper. Yields a shallow slikened froth. Aroma is malty with a hint of fresh biscuits. Medium to full nectar weight. Just rolls of the tongue. Good caramel and fruit flavors with a slight hoppy character. No citrus at all. Very mellow. Well ballanced. Highly recommended.

Sep 2, 2008 Bottle. Refreshing light golden brown ale. Not sure why people call it boring as we found it to have a malty character that neither distracts nor is overbearing. Much better cold than room-temp. Another very good summer time evening beer.

Jul 10, 2008 Very good!!! A perfect balance of malt and hops (aren’t APA’s great?). Also has a nice deep, dark amber/coppery color. Highly recommended!

Apr 3, 2003 ON TAP at various outlets in Hawaii--discovered this one on a recent trip to the 50th state and was mightily impressed. Pours a medium copper color with a nice, long-lasting head. Palate is almost creamy. This is a "full-bodied" beer with plenty of depth. Well-defined maltiness at first, followed up quickly by a full foray of hops.
I also sampled bottled versions of this beer and they did not quite live up to the expectations set by the beer out of the tapper. The bottled version doesn't have quite the depth of flavor and also seems more artificially carbonated. However, it's still a very nice brew that I'd buy if it became available at our local beer outlets.

Mar 2, 2005 Deep copper color. Medium slightly frothy head. Very clean nose, almost fresh. The beer was very smooth and the aftertaste was extremely crisp and clean with a hint of tropical citrus to it. All in all this was an excellent brew.

Aug 28, 2007 Bottle. Unique fruity hoppy smell. Nice lasting head. Rich amber color. Flavor is great - hints of caramel and sweet, hoppy goodness throughout. Perfect bite to it. Developed, but not overdone. Very easy to drink.

Dec 29, 2002 I first had this in Hawaii (was a bit surprised to see a microbrewed beer from Hawaii). VEry nice example of how an APA can be well balanced. Light amber in color, nice hoppy aroma. Starts sweet, middle has some nice hop flavors and the finish is dry with a crisp hoppy bitterness. Very nice!
