A wonderful APA with a nice floral/citrus aroma and flavor. The hoppiness really comes through from start to finish.

A good example of a west coast APA. Orangish appearance with a large head. A good hoppy flavor with some orange and lemon citrus. Finish was bitter and sour. Good, yes, very good!

An good example of an APA. I felt that it had almost that west coast bite that so many look for.

Golden, with a nice sized head. Crisp fresh hop flavor, as well as some newly mown grass ( in a good way). Fresh hop finish. Sampled at the Great Atlanta Pub Crawl, 2004.

hazy dark yellow, whispy head, sweet citrus aroma, medium body, good fresh citrus grapefruit flavor, would be great for breakfast, lasting bitter finish
