Bottle... Poured a hazy amber/orange with a creamy off-white head. I think a little of their huckleberry cream ale batch had gotten into this bottle because there was definitely some of those berry flavors in this. Other lemon, citrus notes and dry hops. I don’t know if I’m going crazy but oh well.

12oz bottle acquired in trade with jake65 (thanks!). Poured a medium and slightly hazy amber color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of stronger floral, citrus, and toasted grains. Tastes of citrus, floral, and caramel.

From a 12 oz bottle from Paul’s Grocery in McCall Idaho that cost 8.46 a six pack this poured a rich and clear copper color with fat off-white head and good lacing. Nose of caramel malts and citrus hops. Lively but pleasant mouthfeel leading to flavors of malts and hops in good balance. Slight bitterness in the dry sinish. Very easy to drink.

Flavor – Nice easy to drink pale ale. Has more flavor than 10 BMC beers this was very well done.
Palate – Nice Mouthfeel, great texture with a good dry finish.
Overall – The perfect Pale ale. Flavor, aroma and most of all drinkability after a hot day.

Copper-amber with good off-white head. Good amount of lacing. Citrus floral aroma. Very sweet with plenty of citrus hop bitterness. Almost a wine-like character. No abv listed so I might guess at least a 6.5%. A bit of vegetal tone almost a slight fermented cabbage flavor. A well balanced APA overall. Just can’t get past that strange undertone.

Pours copper with a rocky white head. Another diacetyl bomb with some lemony hints on the nose. Tastes of sweet malt with some hints of citrus, but diacetyl overwhelms this one. Seems to be a pattern here.

Very nice. Golden pour with 1 inch foamy head. Nice lacing. Aroma of pine and citrus. Citrus hop taste with clean finish. Some distinct note of orange.

12 oz bottle. Clear orange with a puffy off-white head. Nose is orange, tangerine and key lime honey. Medium light but substantial with a nice tingly carb. Taste is soft orange pith with a creamy toffee sweetness. Dries with pleasant lingering bready bitterness and a bit of black pepper. A great example of one of my favorite styles.
