anaheim1983 (111), Anaheim, California, USA May 18, 2006 Yellow very pale, extremely grainy and corn flavors. Had a rough time getting down, but could be because I had an ESB prior. Nothing much except wierd corn
thornecb (1290), Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA Jan 3, 2009 Pours pale yellow into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Pine aromas. Resin and bitter pine upfront with a lasting grapefruit finish. A fairly hoppy pale ale. nqualls (633), Tennessee, USA Jan 3, 2009 12 oz bottle, purchased at McScrooges in Knoxville. Poured a clear orange/gold with a one finger white head. Floral aroma with citrus notes. Flavor had a nice malty base. The finish was piney and bitter. I wasn’t keen on this one for some reason. The flavor had something that just did not quite agree. I will try another an possibly re-rate. MrBunn (1004), Western, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 31, 2008 Bottle. Orange body with a smallish fluffy head. Aromas of floral hops, oranges and light malt (sugar cookie?). Flavor starts off mild and malt heavy, but this soon gives way to major pine and spruce hops flavors and a bitter finish. The hops presence in the finish isn’t indicated at all in the nose, so it was a nice surprise. This is pretty good. Oscbert (328), Sacramento, California, USA Dec 30, 2008 ~Pours a clear light golden color with fluffy white head.
~Cracker and biscuit aroma, fairly ,light scent, some hops and light berry
~Nice balance of biscuity malts and slightly bitter hops.
~Mouthfeel is almost creamy and has good tingles. An enjoyable feel. Bitter finish.
~Good brew. Just nothing really stands out except the creamy mouthfeel. topherh (333), Kearney, Missouri, USA Dec 13, 2008 12 oz bottle pours a hazy golden. Aroma of sweet malt, light floral hop. Taste was dominated by the malts with a dash of flowery hops thrown in.
