Mar 20, 2009 Amazingly tasty Pale Ale from a can. If you like American Pale Ale beer give this a try as soon as possible. Pours amber with a good white head and plenty of white lacings. Hops rule this brew and a good amount of support from the malts. One of the best beers from a can ever! Mouthfeel is very good. Overall a fine Pale Ale. Super good canned Pale Ale. Great looking can art too.

Mar 19, 2009 12oz can. Pours a slightly hazy, golden copper body with a finger-width, dense, white head that dissipates slowly and remains nicely laced. Aroma is loaded with sweet, citrus hops. Big, rich malt profile as well. Flavor is similar. Lots of floral citrus hops and caramels. Light toasted caramel comes through in the finish. Lingering taste of resiny, moderate pine and citrus. Very fresh tasting. Palate is medium bodied and extremely well balanced. Overall, this is what an APA should taste like. Fantastic. Loved drinking this while visiting Denver/Vail.

Mar 16, 2009 Location: Picked up a 12 oz. can at Gilly’s, drank it 3/16/09
Aroma: Hops, pine, citrus
Appearance: Cloudy orange, thin head
Flavor: Hops and the citrus fronts, with a nice balance from the malt backing
Palate: Medium body, really nice finish/mouthfeel.
Overall Impression:
Really nice American Pale, almost IPA like, with some strong hops and a nice mouthfeel. The kind of a beer you can truly enjoy. I like the idea of making high quality can beers, kudos!

Mar 14, 2009 Can at Järnet, Stockholm.
Pours hazy dark amber. Smells of oranges and hops.
This should be the benchmark apa for every brewer!

Mar 13, 2009 12 oz can. Pours a hazy gold color with a 1/2" white head. Nose is all piney/citrus hops. Palate is medium bodied. Flavor is hop forward with a malt backbone. A nice combination is the 2 flavors, although the hops do dominate. This is Gordan’s younger, weaker brother. Very nice!

does not count  Mar 12, 2009 Color is a golden amber. I’ve had this beer many times before and this is the first time I can say I’m picking up plenty of citrus notes (especially orange). Of course hops dominates this beer but not in a brutal sense. Leaves very little lace. Tasty beer, I bought a 12 pack for about $18 and change, so far it’s serving admirably (although it could afford to be a pinch less expensive)

Mar 10, 2009 Canned. Nice head for a canned beer that was with you through out. Hazy yellow amber body. Smells of faint hops and malt with an aluminum thing goin on. You can taste the hops more than you can smell them and wasn’t too overpowered by malt like so many pale ales. Very light on the palate and went down too easy. For a pale it is a good beer besides the aluminum smell and taste.
