Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland Oct 12, 2008 Orange colored with slight cloudiness. Little white head. Strong fruits and caramel in aroma, some rich aromatic flowery hops also here. Medium bodied. Flavor is more hopped with same aromatic flowers, soapy palated hops here too. Aftertaste lasts with same bitter fruits. Rich flavored pa. bleeng (587), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA Oct 11, 2008 Can. Pale gold and filtered. Moderate but fresh hop nose. A bit sweet and then turns bitter on the end-almost sour. A bit floral. Too carbonated, alcohol not present at all. Malty and very drinkable. Overall OK. IlanMan (816), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA Oct 10, 2008 Can: Pour is light amber golden with a nice white head. Aroma is lightly floral with medium fresh hops. This brew was only canned just over a week ago. Hops are Very dominant in the flavor along with very floral characters. Damn fresh and damn nice. Would definitely buy again. lightning9191 (82), Christiansburg, Virginia, USA Oct 9, 2008 This beer pours a coppery color with a white creamy head that dissipates rather quickly. The aroma is hoppy, but not hugely hoppy with some malty notes. The flavor follows up on this. This is a real nice pale ale with some excellent hop flavors and great malty background. The body is medium with medium carbonation. This is the best pale ale I’ve ever had from a can!! BigBen2120 (688), Derry, New Hampshire, USA Oct 9, 2008 12oz can from a liquor store in northern Mass. Pours a hazy amber-orange with a good half inch of off-white head. Smells strongly of grapefruit/citrus hops with hints of caramel malt. Tastes like citrussy hops first, with undertones of caramel and biscuit malt. On the heavy side of medium bodied with moderate carbonation - flirting with viscosity without hitting it or losing drinkability. An exquisite APA for sure - one I’ll be drinking as regularly as I am able to. Good stuff. porter4porter (32), Florida, USA Oct 9, 2008 Have had both on tap and in can, pours amber with a nice head, nice hoppy aroma, crisp, dry taste with a decent malt backing, finishes bitter, the beer was a bit better on tap in my experience caesar (3020), Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands Oct 9, 2008 Tap @ brewpub. Hazy orange color, short head. Hoppy aroma, slight piney. Quite bitter taste. Dry and bitter palate. NobleSquirrel (1099), Chicago, Illinois, USA Oct 5, 2008 Can from Discount Liquor. Pour is a crystal clear reddish gold, thick fluffy head. Nose is distinctly C-hopped, though not as big of a hop nose as I’d expect. Definitely clean and no skunk thanks to the can. Very smooth with a refreshing bitterness. Wish I could get this as a regular in Illinois, especially for $8 a sixer. Nice.
