Aroma of spruce/pine/hops. Appears light copper with moderate to good clarity, slight effervescence composed of very fine bubbles, and a frothy yellow head that dissipates quickly. Bitter and astringent flavor with hops in the foreground and no complementary balance of malt. Palate is thin with some bubbly zing at the end. Overall, this beer is disappointing and somewhat less even than the sum of its parts.

Pours with a copper body topped by a thick head with a good amount of lacing. The aroma is slightly sweet yet bitter and hoppy with nice grapefruit notes and a little tin note. The flavor is bitter and hoppy with pine notes, grapefruity undertones and a touch of sweet malt. Medium bodied, slightly dry and smooth.

Bottle. Copper colored with a great long-lasting off-white head. Good hoppy, fruity, citrus aroma with a caramel malt backing. Good hop flavor, very fruity, not overly bitter. Claen and smooth. Needs more malt backing to balance. Finish is light and dies quickly.

Pours with a huge head. About 1mm beer 3 inches foam. Amber orange in color. Smells a little hoppy with some citric qualities. Flavor is sweet and a little hoppy. Seems to be a little too carbonated for my liking.

Bottled. Brownish clear amber. Cascade fragrant. Sweet and clean with medium body and loads of lychee-like hop flavour. Medium bitterness. A hugely aromatic APA.

This pours out a beautiful deep gold with a creamy head. Fragrant hop aroma with a nice malt support. Sweet and crisp flavor with a very nice bitter finish. Very nice Pale Ale.

Clear medium orange color, almost red. Fresh hop nose, very nice cascade nose and flavor... pale malts in the middle of the drink, finish is a dull and bland hop concoction... a little jumpy and peppy hops in places.
