Oct 9, 2009 On tap at the Great Lakes Brewfest 2009. Hazy amber with a medium off-white head that laces a tad. Aroma of citrus and floral hops with a sweet malt backbone. Taste of sticky resinous hops, citrus and caramel. Thick mouth feel with a mild bitter finish.

Sep 29, 2009 Sampled at Lundeen’s Brew Ha-Ha 2009. Pours a yellow-orange color with a small off-white head. Aroma consistes of a sizable amount of toasted and caramel malt notes, a heavy dose of pine, resin and a lemon citrus hops nose. Flavor starts off with a really good bitter hop leaf that moves into a lemon citrus bite, lightly sweet from the caramel malt and finishes with a pine, spruce, resin hops bite that is faint. Overall a very tasty beer that lies towards the high end of the pale ale hoppiness.

Sep 26, 2009 Short 12oz twist-off bottle. Light amber , golden color. Aroma of orange zest. Some caramel and butter. Flavor has a earthy malt character. A bit musty. Lots of pine resin hop bitterness. It is OK. I’ve had better from Lagunitas. Very bitter for a Pale Ale.

Sep 11, 2009 Updated: Oct 20, 2009Amber with a big white head. Strongly aromatic with slightly floral piney hops. Flavor has some caramel malt, and a nice citric, spicy hop character. Hoppy enough to almost be an IPA.

Sep 11, 2009 Poured from 12 oz. Lighter in amber, a bit darker than pale, with a huge off white head. Very hoppy aroma with citrus and pine mixed in. Taste was a bit milder than the I expected, with a nice sweet malty side. Overall a great beer, somewhere between an APA and IPA.

Sep 3, 2009 Fantastic APA that’s bursting with fresh hoppiness. The hops are pungently fresh and biting, and there’s a nice sweet-malt backbone to balance the beer. Wish I could get this in bottles, it would be a definite go-to beer.

Aug 25, 2009 tap at Collins. Clear golden orange color. Huge huge hop aroma with a flavor that is big time on the bitters almost antiseptic like. Too much for me there.
