kidmartinek (972), austin, Texas, USA May 10, 2008 Copper beer, lasting 2 inch, thick, white head. Floral bouquet aroma of delicious hops. Naturally lush, hoppy, sweet flavor. Very clean. Very delicious. Medium light, excellent palate. Smooth taste, finish, and a drinkablility that Adolphus Busch dreamed about. Finally a real beer, and a damn good one at that, that we can take down the river, and all those other places where you prefer cans over bottles. To sum it up in 12 words, this beer is the beer that other brewers have wet dreams about. Oh, and the lacing is superb, but drink it from the can. I just had to pour this one out to do it proper rating justice. You’re damn right, fun in the great outdoors calls for a great beer, and with Dale’s we finally have one. Worth every penny and then some. Overall impression of 20 for having the balls to produce such a *W i L D** and great product and puT iT iN a cAN!!! daninferior (4), USA does not count May 10, 2008 pours and smells really nice, lots of head, nice hoppy aroma, actually smells better than it tastes, not bad for a can beer, kinda creamy for a pale ale, mild hop attributes, nothing to aggressive ChrisJ (100), Warrenton, Virginia, USA May 10, 2008 Can @ home. Pours in golden and produces a nice off white head. The aroma is hoppy but malts are present too. Th flavor is nice with floral hops nicely balanced by this beer’s malt backbone. Finish is hoppy and slightly bitter. Mouthfeel is medium with a nice amount of carbonation. Highly drinkable. This beer’s strength is its balance. This is a sure fire winner anytime and a wonderful example of what an excellent APA can be. Really nice! corby112 (671), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA May 9, 2008 Pours a dark amber color with white head. Pleasant hoppy aroma with noce malt balance. Very quaffable beer with a perfect balance of malts and hops. Very hoppy for a pale ale. Excellent! nuplastikk (1161), Madison, Wisconsin, USA May 9, 2008 12oz can. This a hell of a Pale Ale. At first sip it seems a little bit like an IPA, but after a few sips you realize this is just a top notch APA. Cloudy orange-brown color. Light floral and hoppy aroma. Sandy dry but sweet mouthfeel. Truly classic, quality beer. aubucs (15), Florida, USA May 7, 2008 Out of can into pint glass. Deep golden color with nice off white head that is pretty steady. Citrus smell primarily, but piney also. Sweet, hoppy, but malt also in there. Nice balance for a western pale ale. Dry finish, but full feel initially. I love this beer.

mcc5468 (102), USA May 6, 2008 Cloudy, orange color. Minimal head. Great hoppy taste, not over-the-top and not too sweet. One of the best pale ales I have had. Just an all around good beer.
