Oct 16, 2004 Great beer. Very crisp and nicely hopped. I tend to think of pale ale’s as "drab" but this wasn’t at all. Not as hoppy as an IPA yet the hops are still the focal point, which I liked. Smooth... I liked it a lot.

Sep 21, 2004 Appearance: a lovely, bright ruby-red color, and a nice off-whitish head that slims to a narrow ring.
Aroma: fruity, yet dry, nice, but nothing more.
Taste: rather easy-going, feeling a tiny bit flat.
A ringing, resounding fruity finish...body is light, texture minimal, flavor mild, although these aren’t drawbacks, I realize, as I reel back and check the intended brew against their intentions. It’s an average pale ale, very drinkable, inoffensive, least likely to scare anyone away...doesn’t please me too much, though.

Sep 8, 2004 On tap. Poured a medium orange/amber color with a small head. Light floral and citris aromas with a light bitter finish.

Sep 3, 2004 Reddish amber body, miniscule white head. Aroma of piney, citrusy hops that is just delicious. Impeccably smooth and drinkable while still having a fairly aggressive hop profile for an APA. This is a world-class beer.

Sep 3, 2004 Had tap in Philly. Enjoyed drinking three of them. Less hoppy the IPA; sometimes a good thing on a hot summer day.

Aug 3, 2004 This is very similar to their IPA but toned down to APA levels. Very nice.
Good balance, nice hop character. Very similar flavor profile as their IPA.

Aug 1, 2004 Clear golden with a white head. Fresh crisp hoppy aroma and flavor. Easy drinking and light. Decent take on an APA.

Jul 17, 2004 Thrown in as a freebee at the brewery on my May visit. Very patriotic label and perfect for our 4th of July party! Bright orange with a huge grapefruity hops aroma. Thick and malty, with a great balance for what this style usually
offers! Sweetness in the middle gives way to a great burst of hops at the finish. Nice bitter aftertaste. Caramel flavors in the middle are superb as it warms!
