Flavor, hops and amazing palate. Put all those together with a great aftertaste and this is what you get. Very refreshing.

Nov 24, 2009 Nice crisp straw color with shallow head. Strong hop aroma - citrusy but light body with honey notes in the flavor profile. Whole lot going on in this one.

Oct 30, 2009 Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint.
Bright yellow-gold, started with moderate sized head but faded fast.
Evident citrus smell from cascade hops, and slight biscuit tones.
Mixture of citrusy cascade hop bite and biscuit malts. Almost spicy. Why does every non-Belgian beer that New Belgium makes have this same biscuit taste? Getting tired of it.
Smooth, low to medium carbonation, kind of watery and thin.
Light but flavorful APA, and is a somewhat different take on the style. That said, the biscuit malts are a little out of place and the beer is a little too thin. Still, nice Spring seasonal.

Sep 27, 2009 Pours a bright translucent orangeish yellow colour. Large frothy top white with beautiful sticky lacing. Aroma is fresh with cascade hops straight in your nose. Taste is creamy, slightly bitter, very smooth with floral notes following through. Nice clean refresing brew.
