| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Dec 6, 2009 Sierra Nevada Estate Brewers Harvest Ale is a clear, solid amber beer with a huge, fluffy, yellow head that has outstanding retention and lacing. It has a big, fresh, citrusy aroma. It’s medium bodied with a quick finish that leaves the mouth a bit chalky. It has a nicely balanced, huge citrusy hop flavor with lots of orange and orange peel. This is an awesome beer-- something I would always be in the mood for. TipsyMcStager (928), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 4, 2009 mild fruity, hoppy aroma. Looks great in the glass - slight cloudy orange with thick white head. Carbonated and has good lacing. Smooth and fruity. Creamy mouthfeel. Nice hoppy finish. Refreshing and satisfying. allendodd (49), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 2, 2009 This bottle from bhensonb (Thanks again) pours an orangish brown with a light brown head. Hopps is the nose. This Ipa has a slightly metallic, grassy bitterness to the hopps that is nicely balanced with a sweet maltiness. I didn’t know what to expect from this beer as most of the Siearra Nevada I’ve had is pretty ordinary stuff. This beer is well made and would be welcome in my beer fridge anytime.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 30, 2009 Copper appearance with a thick white head. Aroma is hops, not too overpowering. Flavor is pleasantly hoppy with a decently balanced body. Lively but not overpowering, definitely recommended. dwyerpg (2537), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Nov 28, 2009 Wonderful appearance, but not much in the aroma unfortunately. This is a good beer. Certainly hoppy up front, a bit of fruitiness in the middle. The only real complaint on this beer is that it’s overpriced compared to their other beers, which are almost as excellent but much more affordable. GuilTTy (538), Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 28, 2009 Bomber from Canals in Pennsauken, NJ. Clear bright copper under a medium dusky beige head with fairly heavy lacing. Straighforward West Coast hop bomb aromas if fresh pine and ruby red grapefruit. Plenty of citrus with compliments of milk chocolate, vanilla and a touch of white pepper strapped atop a rich caramel malt backbone. Silky texture and mostly dry bitter finish. An assertive and well balanced IPA. oldno7 (137), Spokane, Washington, USA
