| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 27, 2008 Draught @ Plan B. Murky orange, lacing white head. Nice fruity hoppy aroma, little yeast and soft maltiness. Flavor has really fresh hops, a hint of sourness and yeast, overall quite crisp. Medium bodied, smooth palate. It’s a good, freshly hopped APA, but nothing worth tripping over. Sandman2222 (42), Florida, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 26, 2008 Poured a dark orange that still let the light through. Smelled fairly hoppy, with a decent head on it, about 1.5 fingers. Tasted real good, how an APA should. Some muted citrus notes mainly of orange. Piney was the main flavor with the beer.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 23, 2008 Bottle: This one was just your average APA. Nothing unexpected nor memorable about it. It’s the Honda Civic of APAs. GeneralGao (3076), Iowa City, Iowa, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 22, 2008 Bottle. Attractive aroma of citrusy hops, caramel, and graham cracker. Poured a clear dark orange color. The head was sticky, off white, and retained its height well. Some lace was left behind on the glass. Dry and hoppy as all get out. Tasted more like pine, green pepper, and grass than citrus. The malt backbone was somewhat meager consisting of weak caramel, dry cereal grain, and paper. Some mild hop bitterness came out.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 22, 2008 Pours orange amber with an off-white head. Nice citrusy hop aroma with a touch of resin. Flavor is more sweet, citrusy hops with a touch of piney bitterness on the finish. Leans towards the IPA side of pale ales. A nice beer. DocHop (278), Baltimore, Maryland, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 22, 2008 Pours a beautiful, hazy orange with a tall, off-white head. Deliciously sweet, caramel, citrus, and hop ipa aroma. So much flavor for a pale ale. The beginning is lightly sweet malt, with some citrus flavors, and the finish is an all out piny/floral hop delight. Very bitter, but an ipa lovers dream for a pale ale. robforbes (1112), Bremerton, Washington, USA

Aroma off citrus hops, caremel, grain and a very slight touch of smoke. Great body that has just the right touch of carbonation and a bitter finish. Flavor of bread, citrus rind, slight caramel that is sweet but finishes bitter and dry.
