Commercial Description:
A refreshing, golden amber brew, with Cascade hops from the Yakima Valley. Adding Cascades during conditioning captures the rich aroma of the hop, and completes the clean, well-balanced flavor of our American pale ale. Crisp, refreshing and exotically aromatic.

Poured dark golden with a creamy white head. Very good head retention. Aroma had apple, courant, citrus, graitfruit and pine. Taste was very pleasant with the apple and being strong tt first and then the citrus and graitfruit coming through. The only drawback was a bit of a coppery taste in the beginning. I liked this and think it should be rated higher.

Pours kind of flat like a typical pale ale. Taste is very plain but a bitter aftertaste makes this a below average craft pale ale.

Medium orange color with a frothy slightly yellowish white head. The aroma is burnt apples with some underlying soap. The taste has a strong note of grapefruit with a hint of pine.There is also a little bit of bitter iced tea. An ok APA, but certainly nothing I will seek out again.

Bottle - Pours golden/amber with a short offwhite head. Aroma is citrus and pine and a touch of caramel. Flavor is grapefruity, with a touch of sweet caramel and a bitter finish. On the palate it is fairly light but didn’t seem very well balanced. The hops seemed to take over. This was drinkable but average at best.

A Low to medium grade pale ale. Slightly less complex than the copper ale but more drinkable. Hoppy start with a bitter mid-taste. The after taste really did not impress me. I like pale ales so i was happy to drink this. I would drink it again if it was in a friends fridge, but I do not think i would buy another case of this.

A decent ale, but nothing that great. Very evident hops. Harsh aftertaste.

Pours hazy golden color. Smells floral and hoppy, rather strongly for an APA. Tastes bitter with a citrus touch, medium body, bitter finish. Not exploding with flavor, but a good mild beer.

Nice deep gold color with good head. Hoppy citrus aroma. Flavors of grapefruit with llittle malt. Somewhat watery in the middle. A little unbalanced for my taste. Very bitter finish.
