FlyingSwine (92), Colorado, USA Apr 26, 2008 Nice looking beer. Pours a cloudy, dark amber (almost orange), with a thin white head, no lacing. Aroma is of light floral hops. Flavor is sweet, with a strong metallic bite. Tastes as if it was heavily dry-hopped. Palate is medium bodied, with an overly dry finish. Not a refreshing brew what-so-ever.
whiterabbit81 (235), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Jun 17, 2008 Smells of fresh hops. Medium brown, with a tan hue. Flavor is citrus and malt, with the ever present flavor of spanish peaks sweet-ish yeast. Quite dry finish and nicely bitter. Actually, it’s pretty good. Crappy ass looking logo. jredmond (583), New Jersey, USA May 19, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy dark orange with small white head. The aroma is sweet hops. Surprisingly smooth and not as hoppy/bitter as the aroma suggests - which makes it pretty easy to drink. jsquire (1848), St. Marys, Ohio, USA May 10, 2008 I made the big mistake of not more carefully decanting this beer. Its deep golden color is marred by the circulating chunks of floating around in it. There is a thin, off white head that did leave some lacing. Aroma has some citrus notes and lightly toasted bread. Grapefruit rind, toast, apricot, and orange juice notes all combine to make this an average APA. I’ve poured a lot of bottled conditioned beers, and it just shouldn’t have all these chunks. tsarman (794), Northern, New Jersey, USA Apr 6, 2008 Decent pale ale. Actually, more like an average pale ale. Easy to drink. Very light on hops.
