| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 5, 2004 golden body with plenty of aggressive carbonation. Foamy, sticky off white head. Dry, bready floral with hints of citrus. some ripe fruits noted as well. . tastes bready, floral & resinous. clean and soft. pretty tasty. a standard pale, not bad.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 3, 2004 This is really a one dimensional pale ale, if you ask me. Not much more than hop character, here, and the hop character isn’t all that great. Needs a lot more to really be a good pale. DrGonzo (625), Somerville, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 26, 2004 Pours a bright orange color, medium white head and lacing. Starts out with a pleasant hoppy citric aroma, pine. Body is a bit too thin for the West-Coast style. Flavor is fruity (orange), slightly spicy, mostly dry finish. Needs more body (but maybe that’s what the IPA is for?). MaxPower (961), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 19, 2004 Pale cloudy golden with lots of sediment, small off white head that doesn’t last with hardly any lacing. Grapefruit and pine aromas, lemon citrus and pepper flavors, finishes a bit dry. Medium bodied with a smooth yet watery mouthfeel, nothing special here. skaughty (621), Marietta, Georgia, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 8, 2004 This is a nice, but not exceptional example of an APA. Nothing is overdone here. The citrus/pineapple/pine aroma and flavor was obvious but not overly dominant. The pour was light amber and head was moderate. The finish was long and sweet, with pineapple and orange coating the tongue Kevin (1918), Colorado, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 5, 2004 bottle. pours a dark yellow that is a bit cloudy. aroma is citrus and grassy. taste is a surprisingly strong malt that has a delicate hop finish. a very refreshing brew. thanks to Bunkypop for this one jimhilt (1687), Bow, New Hampshire, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Sep 28, 2004 Pours a one-fingered white head that stays leaving some lace. Clear golden amber color. Good carbonation. Strong hoppy nose. Starts and finishes with boatloads of hops and leaves a serious aftertaste. Epitomizes the style but not for me. $2.55 for a 12oz bottle from Vintage Cellar Blacksburg, VA.
