| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 7, 2008 Bottle courtesy of soonah. Pours amber and cloudy with a nice diminishing white head and a good lacing. Smells of citrus, roses, pronounced caramel, hints of flowers, some candied fruit and slightly resiny. Tastes initially bitter with nice sweet citrus, hay, pepper, some hints of spice. Finishes earthy with a touch of bitternedd. Mouthfeel is tingly with some hints of candied ginger. Lots of subtle complexity in this one. unclemattie (2416), Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 13/20 | Jan 23, 2009 Short, 12oz twist-off bottle. Beautiful pour. Deep copper color, white head. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, sweet honey, citrus hop, hints of chocolate. Nice malt. Flavor has a bold malt, sharp bitterness, great balance. I wish we had more of this beer locally. It is good. Finishes with some chocolate and nice hop bitterness. milljam (583), Norman, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 21, 2009 I was quite impressed with this pale ale. Aroma is nicely balanced between notes of citrus and caramel malts. Flavor is citrus initially, with a nice nutty, biscuit backbone. Finish is smooth and dry, with mild bitterness. For the flavor, abv and price, you can’t get a better deal than this. jzzbassman (846), New Albany, Mississippi, USA

Not much aroma, but has some caramel notes, not much for hops. However the flavor is nicely hopped, dry, bitter, and very pleasing. jgentgesdo (564), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA
