| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 22, 2003 This one had a nice clear bittersweet color with a short thick head that decided to stick around for awhile. Mild fruity/hoppy aroma. Good carbonation, noticable but not too harsh. I liked the flavor of this beer, not too strong in the hops or malt department. Almost a peachy undertone with a slight bitter bite at the back of my throat and no discernable aftertaste. Good for evening sippin. Leighton (300), New York, New York, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 16, 2009 An overall solid beer. Rich, thick head and strong, dark copper color. Taste is suggestive of caramel and toffee. Smooth with just enough complexity to keep it interesting. I wish this brew was more widely distributed. BtownBrewer (91), Belchertown, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 22, 2003 Orange amber color pours a tall haed. Sweet hoppy aroma, but only a mild hop bite. Just the way I like it actually. Easy to drink without having to think about what you're drinking. I'd have this one again. shadey (1501), Rochester, New York, USA

Beautiful lacing on the mug as I drank. A nice mix of malt and hops. Very refreshing and delicious with the cajun chicken I had it with. I am impressed with the folks at Coastal Extreme. ericnixon (719), Northampton, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 10, 2003 Nice deep reddish color. judging by the surfing lighthouse on the label (yes, it's riding the wave) i was hoping for something to assail and batter my senses silly. i got something that's mildly malty and good...but not what i had expected. i guess if they called it "Light Pissy Rain Amber Ale" it wouldn't sell so well.

Light orange with a well structured, lasting head. Aroma of biscuits and pineapple, quite hoppy. Biscuit oriented malts, with a pleasant bitterness. Fruity initial pineapple gives way to more earthy notes as the beer warms. Balanced. Good stuff, reminds me in some ways of Rogue’s Brutal Bitter.
