Jun 12, 2009 Draft at BT. Pours a golden body with a white head. Grassy, hop aroma and some lighter sticky pine and citrus. A honey and nectar note. Fantastic for the style.

Jun 11, 2009 Gold, white head. Nose is a pine & grapefruit hop blast, caramel, some tropical fruits. Flavor is grapefruit juice - shockingly so! More than any other pale ale I’ve had, this reminds me of grapefruit juice without the acidity. Some cattiness, orange. Finish is more grapefruity goodness. Very good!

May 31, 2009 (bottle - 12 oz) Clear gold color with a thick and lasting white head. Aroma is light and hoppy with a smooth citrus and nice floral note. Flavor begins with a bitter citrus bite, moving to a nice and flowery middle and a juicy citrus finish. Smooth and easy to drink with a nice lasting bitterness.

May 28, 2009 Bottle. Pours golden orange with an off white head. Nice citric hop aroma with some sweeter malt. The flavor has a solid dose of citric and floral hops, with a decent malty balance. Dangerously easy to drink.

May 23, 2009 Crisp slightly copper coloured orangish-hue body with a fast-dying off-white head. Aroma of fresh malt, fresh light hops, lemons, citrus and a bit of metal. Medium-bodied; Assertive hoppiness up front with a floral and citrus pungency, with some good malt coming behind. Aftertaste shows some alcohol, hop bitterness and a bit of citrusey hops - nice! Overall, a good and well balanced APA. Good for the style and fairly easy to drink for the ABV! I sampled this twelve ounce stubby bottle purchased from Westover Market in Arlington, Virginia on 19-April-2009, sampled at home in Washington on 22-May-2009.

May 21, 2009 On tap at The Red in Santa Cruz. Poured into a pint glass. Clear dark gold color with a nice, lasting white head. Aroma is unripe citrus and pine needles. Flavor is pale malty without much sweetness, with a huge hoppy dominance. Citrus rind, hop resin, and pine with a nice medium bitterness. Like a beefier SNPA. Refreshing body and carbonation. A very solid pale ale.
