garmonbozia (225), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA Mar 3, 2009 Thank Sparky for this. Nice pale ale with hints of grass and of course citrus in there. taste was ver melow and nice carbination. Hops was not overpowering either. Great beer jefcon (997), Arlington, Virginia, USA Mar 2, 2009 Hazy, deep orange color. Lively head leaves some lacing. A lavender soapy smell dominates the aromas, though a little citrus is present, too. Bitter, full palate. Soapy hops, grassy up front and finishing more acidic. Almost creamy. The value in this beer is the true hop character. ttoadee (18), Texas, USA Mar 1, 2009 Pours slightly cloudy, tap like head. Great depth of body, very "full" beer. Hops and alcohol, while strong, do not overpower. Very well balanced beer. Avengedpoet (325), Mesa, Arizona, USA Mar 1, 2009 Much hoppier than I remember it being the first few times that I tasted it. Really more of an IPA than a pale ale, which wasn’t what I was looking for when I picked this up again. Pours a nice copper color with fairly low carbonation. Aroma is of huge centennial citrusy hops, as is the taste. Flavor is not overly complex whatsoever, displaying one-dimensional citrus hop taste with a mild malt backbone that doesn’t intrude. That’s really about it. A great beer when you’re in the mood for an IPA, a decent one when you’re not, and a horrid beer when you don’t want hops. At least it’s in a can :-) Coltrane (108), South Carolina, USA Feb 27, 2009 Malty, bitter, caramely, delicious. Pretty complex for a pale ale, and a great little can. God’s gift to camping and the beach, at least while Sly Fox isnt widely distributed. Almost an IPA, and certainly more of an IPA than some so called IPAs. dlihcsnatas (50), Texas, USA Feb 25, 2009 Still have a hard time buying canned beer but since this was on sale had to try it. Amber in color and heavy on the floral hop smells. The taste kind of put me off at first with the pine hop flavor but after a while it grew on me. Other than the intense floral and pine hop flavors the heavy malt is also notable. While not bad it is not something I would purchase again unless it is on sale. GMCC2181 (845), Bear, Delaware, USA Feb 24, 2009 Can... Light orange in color, small head that faded quickly. Malty, sugary aroma. Taste is the same. Light roasted malts maybe...sugary, light hops. Still well balanced. Good texture/body. Overall, at 6 percent alcohol pretty strong for a pale ale. It could be an IPA or something else. Overall good beer thejon375 (390), Tampa, Florida, USA Feb 22, 2009 Great pale ale, might be the best. Dont be fooled by the can. Tastes great and would recommend to anyone.
