| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Apr 14, 2005 Hazed amber body, little to no head. Aroma is bready and caramely, rich, with a bit of sourness and a slight hoppy bite. Flavor seems dominated by the maltiness, with the hop twang only coming through in the finish. Fairly drinkable but not something I’d buy again considering the many great APAs out there. KAggie97 (2482), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 27, 2005 Pours with a vivacious head that formed a mesa in my glass as it settled. Interesting; never had that happen before. Anyway, the smell doesn’t do this one justice. The bite is a nice equilibrium of citrus and a dull pine/cedar taste. A nice beer that doesn’t overdo itself, but does not undersell itself either. Good session beer with a tad bit of bite. blank (998), Washington, Washington DC, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 18, 2005 it’s fair dark and think pale ale. It has a very musty old hop aroma to it. The flavor kinda matches. The hop flavor is pronounce and not bad, but there should me a little malt. THe next sip it not as good as the first. Another overhoppy APA.

| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Mar 12, 2005 Bottle. Gold body with a thick foamy head. Nose smells like musty oranges-and not in a good way. My god. this is sour and powdery. There is an acidic bite on this that isn’t bad, but the finish is nasty. Tastes like moldy oranges.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 18, 2005 Poured cloudy amber with a medium white head...smell is a little soapy and a lot citrus...not grapefruit citrus, but lemon citrus...taste was also a little soapy and seemed somehow out of balance with a sweet malty lemon thing going on and then some piney hoppiness...interesting finish...

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 12, 2005 Grapevine Market - Austin, Tx - 12 oz bottle. Pours a murky light orange with a fluffy and sticky white head that leaves excellent lacing. Aroma leaves a bit to be desired - faint traces of lemony zest but finishes with a funky, earthy twang. Falvor has a slight citrusy bent to it but finishes with a slightly odd chemical mixture reminding me of Tang. Mouthfeel is decent enough, slightly spritzy. Average APA. thehoff (569), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 7, 2005 Very cloudy golden brown, too many floaties because of my hasty pour. Oh well. Thin white head. You can really smell citrus and it seems quite sweet. This is really not quite what I expected. It has quite a mild flavor, sweet, resulting in a nice dry bitter finish. I really like this pale ale. It isn’t over the top and is quite drinkable. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 6, 2005 Dark straw colored, with decent head but little lacing. Hopcit aroma and taste, with some florals at the finish.
