Bottle. Light hop aroma with a very light almost smoke note. Golden color with a thick white head. Sweet body with notes of caramel and light yeast flavors. Dry bitter palate.

12 oz. bottle pours a clear pale amber with a two finger head. Has a grainy, yeasty smell with a hint of flowery hops. Medium bodied with a fairly smooth mouthfeel. Has a good , malty sweet grain flavor with a nicely bitter hop finish. jan 2005

Bottle. Pours a clear amber color, with a medium foamy white head. Sweet-ish aroma and flavor. A solid pale ale, but nothing special here. Flowers and a touch of pine hop. Not offensive and I certainly would not turn it down, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to get some.

Bottle courtesy of lb4lb. Pours a crystal clear amber with a frothy off-white head that leaves decent patchy lacing. Sweet pale malt on the nose with a light citrus and floral hop backing. Light-bodied and fairly thin, the mouthfeel is almost silky with soft carbonation and a mildly bitter hop finish. The flavor is a nice mild blend of pale malt and citric hops ending fairly quickly with just a touch of lingering hop bitterness. A solid and fairly "safe" APA, this beer is exceptionally drinkable. If you have non-beer drinking or BMC friends that you’d like to convert to geekdom, this brew is a good candidate for a gateway beer. Thanks for sending this one, Deniz!

Clear copper with a off white head. Aroma is of flowery & piney hops with a malty (quite sweet) appearence. Again certainly well balanced - perhaps even a bit too sweet. Caramel & hops... OK..

12oz. Clear dark straw with a big foamy white head. Mostly hop aroma, with a great crisp bitter citrus body that ends with mostly hops. This doesn’t strike me as malty but has loads of carbonation and a leaning on thin mouthfeel that makes it very drinkable.

Amber with low head. Aroma of black currant, caramel, hay and something that reminds me of Pacman yeast. The flavour is sweet with some biterness towards the end.

Hazy light amber beer with a small white head. Subtle aroma dominated by peach and apricot, and som caramelly, toasty malt. The malt also dominates the medium sweet flavour, balanced by enough bitterness, and a good deal of hop flavour
