| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 26, 2008 Bottle, thanks BConley! Pours dark gold with a lacy pale yellow head. Not much going on in the aroma for an APA, just a little caramel.Body and carbonation tending to light. Bready, grainy taste with a hint of citrus. The hops show up in the finish, along with a little trace of soap. If these guys could discover a way to get some hop aroma and flavor into this, it would do wonders for the brew. bconley (351), Fern Park, Florida, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 19, 2008 Hell yeah! Only 12 ratings? More people need to send me stuff like this. Amber pour with a nice sized white head. Aroma is heavily malted with a bit of citrus hops in the background. Flavor is yeasy, bread dough, citrus, earth, soap. Bitter finish.

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Sep 6, 2008 good looking malts and decent hops, but the rest gives off a bad soapy like quality that is not appealing. nick76 (2684), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Sep 6, 2008 The aroma is malty with grassy hops and yeast. The appearance is golden with a light amber hue and a nice head. The flavor is soapy and hoppy with a light toasty finish. The palate is average. This beer is better than average but not a lot better. Oakes (8139), Kowloon, Hong Kong
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 23, 2008 Pale golden-amber. Woody hop nose. Very toasty, with lots of caramel. A bit thin in the body, definitely light. Lots of woodiness in the finish - a step back in time for American Pale. hopscotch (5531), Vero Beach, Florida, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Aug 19, 2008 Bottle... Clear golden ale with a small, creamy, white head. Earthy, peppery nose offers, very restrained, low-key notes of biscuit and caramel. Medium-bodied with middling carbonation. Leans a good bit on the bitter side of balance, but there’s no real hop flavor. No real flavor at all. Bitter finish. Malt? Where is it? Aromatic hops? Where are they? Kit beer. Needs work!
