Bottle. Somehow this was a gusher and blew up all over my counter even though it has been resting calmly in the fridge for 2 weeks.. Pour is light hazy copper with large white head. Aroma is pine hop, yeast, malt, and faint citrus. Flavor is a nice balance of hop and malt with a subtle yeast and citrus finish. Its not too shabby..

Dec 12, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Shared at monthly Brew Club meeting. Pours a thin white head of medium duration, over a clear golden (SRM 7) body......nose is primarily light pine, with a bit of grass.....taste is rather sharp early, finishing with hop sharpness. Mouth feel was light and somewhat watery, carbonation medium. This is a different take on an American Pale Ale, and I did not much care for it. The hop sharpness was not there, and the malts were absent also. Could it have been a bad bottle??

Nov 25, 2009 Pours lightly hazy with a caramel color and a nice big head leaving sheets of lace. The aroma is caramel with floral notes, some citrus, some perfume, and a pretty nice malt character, pretty standard fare for an APA. The flavor is a little more unique with floral notes, herbal bitterness, some light biscuit and mild sweetness, plenty of fruitiness and some citrusy hops. Pretty good really!

Oct 18, 2009 Pours bronze like amber color with vanishing white medium foam head. Has a weird citrus skin taste like an orange or grapefruit peel. Weird aftertaste that is almost like a plastic taste. Kind of confusing on the palate.

Oct 16, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a clear amber color with one finger foamy white head that settles quickly but laces the glass. Aroma is sweet and floral with notes of citrus, grapefruit, light spice, honey, touch of caramel. Flavor is sweet and floral with similar notes of citrus, grapefruit, light pine, caramel. Generally light to medium body to a floral hop finish. Not bad.

Sep 30, 2009 A golden ale with small white head. It has a very hoppy floral and grass aroma. The flavor starts out well-balanced with malt and hops, but it finishes bitter and very dry, almost dusty.

Sep 25, 2009 Pours a deep golden color with a very big, dense frothy white head. Aroma is a very distinct light citrus note of Cascade, light flowery note and some sweetness at the very end. Flavor has a nice toasted malt flavor, smooth citrus, some grassy hops notes as well, with a sweet malty ending and quick, sharp bitter hop bite. Light/moderate in density, very fine carbonation is perfect for this brew and there is fantastic white lacing left on the glass. The brew has a very balanced profile with the flavor having a solid hop presence without being over done. A great brew for every day drinking.

Sep 22, 2009 Golden color with a thick off white head, lots of small carbonation bubbles. Aroma is clean with a simple honeyed malt and a lemon zest. Nice and light smell. The flavor is clean with a butter malt and wheat then a citrus smack and finishing with a crisp hop to dry the palate. This is a very neat American pale ale.
