| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Nov 18, 2009 Sample at the brewpub. Clear amber pour with a thick frothy off-white head. Mostly malty aroma with some earthy hops. Dank malt flavor with an earthy hop finish. Would have preferred a lot more crispness. sirpsycho (345), Murrysville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 26, 2009 Draft. Pours a medium amber, nice off-white head. Hops, citrus and malt dominate the aroma. Flavor is more of the same with caramel added. Went great with the enchilada I had. dpjuart (670), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA

clear dark amber, frothy beige head, solid lace,

creamy body,
lots of hop flavor, nice citrus character, sweet crystal malt provides great balance, nice long bitter finish complements the hop flavor rather than distracting from it

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 24, 2006 Sample at the brewpub. This brew is a clear amber color with a creamy and thin light beige head. Lacing coats the whole glass. Floral hops aroma, with a touch of fruit. Medium body, with a nice hoppy flavor. There is a good amount of malt and citrus flavor as well. The finish is hoppy and bitter and lasts. Pretty enjoyable all around. euserphriendly (163), Holland, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Feb 5, 2005 I sometimes like to have one of these before a meal. This beer is on nitrogen which gives it a strange mouthfeel for an APA. Decently hopped, and always smooth. FROTHINGSLOSH (1995), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA

Nice grapefruity hop aroma. The texture is reasonably thick and the hops definitely shine through on the flavor. There is some malt to help balance out the hops. I have certainly tried hoppier brews, but this is a reasonably well balanced and quite enjoyable example of the style. michael-pollack (2665), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 14, 2004 Great floral aroma. Nice amber appearance, but could be a little more red. Flavor is lacking a little bit of finnishing hopps.
