Sep 27, 2009 Light hop aroma, could be more. Little to no head. Inauspicious beginning continues with the flavor as it isn’t overly exciting or distinctive. Still it’s pretty good. Just not great in any means.

Aug 21, 2009 ~Pours a clear goldish amber color with small creamy head.
~Light berry citrus scent with a bit of funkiness (but isnt bad).
~Citrus hop flavor with some berry notes and backbone of malts.
~Medium feel, bitter citrus finish.
~Decent pale ale, a bit acidic for me and upsets my stomache.

Jun 7, 2009 From a 22 oz bottle this pale ale poured an attractive clear amber color with a robust white head and good lacing rings. Nose of floral and citrus hops. Very smooth and clean mouthfeel. The flavor is malty with light floral hops, and the finish is lightly bitter. Overall well balanced and quite drinkable showing you not need to do anything complicated to make a good APA.

Mar 23, 2009 Bomber. Nice amber color with frothy white head that was substantial. Aromas of fruity/floral hop and light caramel. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is mild citrus/grapefruit backed adequately by caramel. The finish is nicely bitter - going a bit floral. Just a tad too harsh to be an ESB, so APA is about right. Pretty good stuff.

Mar 21, 2009 Clear copper with a one inch white head a fair lacings. Aroma is fruity floral hops. Taste is bitter sweet with lots of leather. Some white grapefruit on the back of the tongue. Mouthfeel is good as is the carbonation. Overall a pale with none of the fruity sweet bitterness I like. If you prefer white grapefruit to ruby red give this a try. At 5.0% abv. it would be a good session pale.

Mar 13, 2009 This blonde ale poured with a fluffy off-white head and a faint floral aroma. There is a tasty pale malt base with decent hopping and some carbonation.

Feb 23, 2009 Sample at the KLCC microbrew festival. Cloudy orange pour with a hefty white head. Not much going on here, slightly floral and citrus hop flavoring, but more of a caramel malt than the hoppiness. So so offering.
