Aug 18, 2009 Draft at Brass Tap (Shops at Wiregrass - Wesley Chapel, FL). Nice looking copper amber color with a dense, foamy, off-white head. Nice amount of citrus and hops in the aroma but a fair amount of malt to balance it out nicely. Tasty. Nice bitterness in the finish.

Jun 20, 2009 Old review from early to mid 2006
This offering from Lagunitas disappoints just like the others. It does have a nice cloudy orange hue with a light tan cap and slight spotty lacing but has alot of sediment and I did not want to see that. The aroma is built on a large ammmount of malts and soft ’not-quite’ grapefruit candy hops amd a slight spice. The smell is appealing but something is off here and I cannot place my finger on what it is. The taste has nice soft citrus and spicy hops, candy, dirt?... Tasty enough but once agian not on the mark. Light to light medium bodied. Mouthfeel is soft and the aftertaste is solid. There are other options for pale ales out there....
