Commercial Description:
A mildly hopped beer with a complex malt character, and a soft creamy head. Soft and fruity with light yeast esters of apricot and orange. It is a refreshing and crisp session beer, with just enough hops to balance and round out the sweetness of the malt. 34 IBU 1.048 OG

Slightly cloudy amber color,small white head that left a slight lacing on the sides.Light malt aroma with a fairly strong hop presence and slight spicy tone to it.The feel is thin but for a taste it is semi-sweet with a decent hopping and slight bitterness to it.the after taste is mildly citrus and mildly hopped,Fairly decent brew and worth the shipping it took to get it here.

An average creamy head that leaves a fair amount lace on the glass. The head mostly diminishes in a matter of about a minute. A light amber in color that is clear. It has a slightly malty aroma, with a hint of bananas. Also a slightly almost citrus hop aroma. Nice malts on the tip of the tongue with a dry hoppiness in the finish. The finish however is quick to diminish. The malts are quite fruity, some apple in there maybe.

Slightly fruity aroma and flavor. Most of the initial flavor comes from the malt. It finishes slightly bitter. The body has a nice fullness to it. It goes on sale quite often where I am so I will buy it again and see how it goes then.

A translucent golden ale with a thin creamy white head. In aroma, a very nice lightly floral hops over silky malts, and light orange pulp notes. In mouth, a good intense oily malt, with loads of esters, light and restrained hops, almost Belgian in style, like Palm. Medium bodied. On tap at brewpub, Sept. 12 2009.

Another wonderful session beer. Nothing really stands out in the aroma, not very balanced in the carbonation, with a grapefruit like taste with a nice hoppy kick in the mouth. Good flavor all the way through to the end. Light and easy to drink.

12oz bottle, no date from riversideAK. Clear golden orange with a 1/2 finger white head, fading to a fing and thin film rather quickly. More hops than I’d expected--pine and florals with some biscuity malts and honey in the background. Flavor was pretty much the same with the moderate hop presence turning more piney, and plenty of sweet biscuity malts and honey on the malt end. Bitterness peaked around a 3 1/2 in the back corners of my tongue. Low carbonation with a light body. I’m going to mirror Naven’s comment that I was pleasantly surprised, and would have no problem sessioning this for a night.

Nice hops aroma, very crisp. Flavor is more of the same...simple, but done right. Very nice refreshment.

12/10/08 from the bottle. Aroma is strangely almost identical to Honey Nut Cheerios, dominated by caramel and light noble hops. Appearance is slightly hazy yellow with a medium maintained white head. Flavor is sweet candilike malt forward with a grainy but light bittering. Mouthfeel is also slightly grainy. Overall, simple but somehow not easy drinking.
