ldg1413 (13), USA May 27, 2009 Possibly the most overrated ’indie’ beer, though that title probably still belongs to Sierra Nevada’s IPA. Unbalanced hops married with the skunkiness from a metal can.. not for me. brewski519 (395), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA May 25, 2009 Really? A can? This is my new favorite beer for the summer since I can take it to the neighborhood pool and it isn’t Miller, Coors or Bud... nice. Pours a copper/amber color and has the nice citrus, hops and pine flavor you would expect from a solid pale ale. Solid this pale ale is... tastey hoppy, grapefruit, malty and piney ale... and no tinny taste. Perfect for the summer. EHopper (274), Minnesota, USA May 24, 2009 What a great Pale Ale. Seems so strange out of a can. Full citrus aroma followed bu a burst of grapefruit and pine flavor. A hint of sweet followed by dry. As good as many better IPA’s. pbstevens (1), USA does not count May 24, 2009 WOW! This is my new favorite pale ale! Great hops and nice alcohol content! dmschefke (371), Eastpointe, Michigan, USA May 21, 2009 Thanks lb4lb for this. Pours a pale orange with off-white head. Aroma of citrus hops well balanced with malt. Flavor is surprisingly smooth and complex. Quite a nice surprise out of this one, definitely a beer I want a bit more of. HighWine (163), , California, USA May 17, 2009 Can. Nice clear, copper color. Barely any carbonation. White head thins quckly. Good hop nose, citrus and a hint of pine mixed with honey. I was looking forward to all of those aromas hitting my palate, but the flavor profile doesn’t measure up quite as well. Taste was flat and unexciting. There is a strong malt beginning but the flavor was bland. Medium high hop bitterness lingers on the palate and warmth from alcohol is definitely present. The flavors do seem to blend a little better as the beer warms a little. kmyers8807 (25), Ohio, USA May 16, 2009 Can thanks to bitbucket! Cracked the can open, poured into glass. Aroma was of light hops, with the sweet hop and maybe a little fruity smell. The flavor was just the right blend of hops for a APA. Could have been better, but nothing to hate. jbye4334 (652), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA May 16, 2009 (can at Summit Brewfest in Colorado Springs). Pours a cloudy amber color. Medium off white head. Average hop aroma with light malt. Hop flavor with moderate bitterness. Oily texture. Good lacing.
