elihapa (461), Hawaii, USA Aug 4, 2008 From bottle. Pours pastel gold with a bit of tangerine color and a medium fluffy head. Aroma of grass and hops, lightly floral. Flavor is a nice mild mix of hops, grain, and some light malt. I thought the crisp body on this brew was a nice touch. Overall, surprisingly tasty, and goes well with food.
brewski519 (77), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA Jan 7, 2009 Pours a golden yellow with a nice thick white head. Aroma of citrus, pine, floral hops and some spice. Taste of lemon coming through for the citrus with the pine and a touch of hops... very easy drinking beer and would certainly recommend as this one pulls it off nicely. anders37 (2981), Malmö, Sweden Jan 2, 2009 Draft @ the brewery taproom. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Has a sweetish malty and bready aroma with some hoppy hints. Sweetish malty bready floral hoppy flavor. Has a sweetish malty and slightly hoppy finish. 502Flavors (410), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Dec 21, 2008 12 oz bottle into pint glass -- thanks Daknole! Hazy yellow like a lemon flavored drink with small head that falls fast. Tons of yeast fell into this one. Aroma is pretty nice with some fruity (cherry? and candi sugar?) aroma. Flavor is very similar - light and refreshing over all. The palate is bizarre, almost grainy. Perhaps it is from the massive amount of yeast sediment that fell in. This thing has the potential to be great but has wuite a few flaws. Lower the amount of yeast in bottle conditioning (why is this bottle conditioned anyways), get the color and head up to par, sort ou that mouthfeel. The aroma and flavor are very nice though. SuperDave70 (1002), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Dec 19, 2008 Light hazy gold with a foamy head. Citrus hop and caramel malt aroma. Light slightly sweet flavor with a short hoppy finish. Not bad, but no big deal. RIXbeer (102), USA Nov 28, 2008 2008 GABF winner...What? Why? Slightly yellow-straw color. No head. A very earthy and a bit sour odor. Tastes the way it smells. It’s ok. It’s very light with a slight coating flavor from the hops, which are barely there. Drink up. this 6 will go in minutes...It’s better than most EXTRA pale ales. but this isn’t an awesome beer. just a good one.
