Sep 15, 2007 This is a great beer, I’m not sure why there are so many poor reviews. Maybe they’ve tweaked their recipe a bit because now it is superb. Pours golden with a medium lasting head. Aroma is big bold citrus- not really grapefruit but orange/tangerine/lemon. Very good. Flavor follows the aroma and is slightly sweet. Finish has a nice bitter kick. Borderline pale ale/IPA. Rocks!!!!

Nov 18, 2006 Draught in Campbell. Nice hop aroma. Hazy gold body with no bubbles and an off-white head. Nice brussels lace. Creamy with doughy hops. Very nice. Excellent. I am pleasantly surprised. A little somthing off in the finish but not enough of an issue to cloud my enjoyment of this brew.

Very light tan color with caramel notes and bare hints of smokiness. There’s just not much to this beer - it had a hint of orangey sweet flavor, and one high note of hops, but it definitely didn’t stick around.

Jun 29, 2004 (Draft: Rock Bottom in Campbell, CA) The official description of this lightly flavorful beer talks about a malty sweetness, piney grapefruit and great for hop heads; It’s moderately sweet, but the rest is all lies; It’s not very malty and the mild hops isn’t exactly going to appeal to hop heads; The dry finish is lightly bitter because all the malt flavor is gone; Very little in the nose; Light amber/copper in color; Off-white head fades to a thin sheen, and leaves a somewhat dense but thin coating of lacing on the glass
