| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Nov 16, 2007 Cashew, walnut, and pineapple aroma, a touch yeasty. Slightly cloudy ochre color, thin yellow head, nice laing. Nutty vanilla flavor, not sweet, with definite bark notes. A rather rusty brew. Subdued grapefuit peel finish. Although this is not a great offering, I really like this brewer. wcampbell (584), Central, South Carolina, USA

More bitterness than their IPA. It could have used a little more malt balance, but the flavor was good. Light bodied and well carbonated. robforbes (1114), Bremerton, Washington, USA

purchased at red apple in bremerton.
pours a clear amber-orange with a very thin dirty white head that goes away quickly.
smell is faint grass, some hops, touch of spice.
taste is dry, grain, citrus, with a little grass, dirt, sour, hops in the back, a little metallic. 17thfloor (1514), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 7, 2007 Updated: Mar 18, 2008Typical med/dark amber pour, few bubbles, medium somewhat creamy head. Very fragrant, hoppy with some obvious malt undertones. Flavor is hops, with some citrus and very little malt. Bitter and sweet finish. Very drinkable for a beer with this much in it...the light side of an APA. Palate is thin but adequate. Excellent, well balanced. exadore (92), Sacramento, California, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 31, 2007 Pours a red-orange with a very light head. Light malty scent which is mainly dominated by a hoppy odor. Starts off crisp and slightly sweet, and ends with a pretty good hop bitterness. It’s pretty good, but not outstanding.
