Tap: Cloudy copper color with not much head. The flavor is quite sweet and even yeasty. They call this a pale ale even though it is categorized here as an amber. The aroma is an interesting spicy, sweet hop aroma. The carbonation is lively with a good body, but the taste is just too sweet.

Draft. Amber color, no head. Fruity and grassy hop flavors. Well balanced with malt. Easy to drink. A bit of a "home-brew" quality.

Standard west coast pale ale. Medium citrus hop flavor and aroma. Medium bitterness. A fairly good beer, although not as good as some of Pacific Coast’s bigger beers.
