| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 18, 2009 Nodding Head BPA Bill Payer Ale. Hand pump at the brewery. Dry hopped. Floral hop nose - light caramel. Clear amber golden. Fairly dark with small fine white head. Grassy floral hop flavor over light caramel maltiness. Finish is clean dry and moderately bitter. PDG I thought. WeeHeavySD (2970), San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Aug 12, 2009 tap at nodding head yesterday. Pours orange with a 2 finger tan head. The nose was all fucked up, skunky skunky skunky. Taste is sweet, hoppy ok, but the nose ruined it for me. decaturstevo (1991), decatur, Tennessee, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Mar 23, 2009 Tap at the brewpub. Very bitter flavor, with little citrus or otherwise distinct hop character. A touch sweetish. Kind of farty, dryish, bitter light malts and minerals are noted.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 18, 2009 Golden colour with a big hoppy aroma. Lots of fresh resiny pine and a soft lemon/orange citrus as well. There is a light kiss of pine as well. It’s pretty well-balanced though. Fairly assertive bitterness on the back. Lots of hoppy flavour but it comes through less on the aroma. I quite like it though. jmm635 (257), Havertown, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 8, 2009 Light amber color with a thick white head. Aroma of hops and some citrus. Maltier on the tongue than I expected. Goes down easy. Drinkable, but I wouldn’t be upset if I never had it again. blipp (1664), Newark, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 6, 2009 Draft at the brewpub. Pours amber with an off white head. Sweet malt aroma with citric hops, probably Cascade. Flavor has citric/floral hops up front, again I’m guessing Cascade, with a solid amount of caramel malt sweetness as well. Very nice.
