Poured dark amber/golden, good head formation. Aroma consisting of hops and lightly of malt, nice. Hits the mouth with medium body, had an odd salty/ hoppy finish. Maybe I just got a bad batch...nothing to write home about jvmiller (532), Bel Air, Maryland, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Not too shabby. Nice malt flavor, biscuits. Something is a little off about the hops though, otherwise I would really like it. The bitterness is just a bit strange to me. Almost reminds me of clove or corriander or something. In any case, the body is surprisingly creamy and has a very nice texture. Not bad. GreatLibations (1470), Last Supper, Arizona, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 2, 2007 Thanks Jesse! Pours a full, semi creamy froth w/ an amber color. Good hangtime w/ spattered and sticky residual lacework. Aroma is fresh w/ grapefruit. Medium nectar w/ ample residual effers creating a soft as cotton texture. Malty w/ a mild citrus hop is all I can say. The finish is bittered mildly and is slightly crisp. KDorgan12 (169), Memphis, Tennessee, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 24, 2007 Draft - Minneappolis, MN. If I had know that the brewery was around the corner, I would have went on the tour. This was a pleasant surprise at a work related dinner. Great Pale with a smooth finish. piscator34 (1136), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 17, 2007 Draft sample. Amber in colour with moderate carbonation. Muted malt aromas with notes of caramel and white grapefruit. More caramel and light grapefruit in the mouth. I got a bit of a salt note as well. A bit watery, but quite drinkable... sort of like a dialed down Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Simple, but enjoyable. BDR (2170), Roseville, Minnesota, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 12, 2007 Clear amber color with plenty white head. Clean, sweet citrus hop aroma. Bitter citrus hop body (grapefuit and faint orange). Smooth finish. beerguy101 (3972), Newark, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 11, 2007 Tasted on Tap. This American Pale Ale pours a orange gold color. Small sized white foamy head. Aroma is floral hops and sweet. A medium bodied APA. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are floral and slightly citrusy. Nice carbonation. Good balance. This is a nice solid APA, nothing spectacular but a solid nice drinking beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 6, 2007 Sampled at Hills Market beer tasting. This brew is a clear copper color with a medium and fizzy white head that burns off fairly fast. Spotty lacing on the glass. Mildly piney hops with touches of citrus in the nose. Medium-bodied with hops over sweet toffee and malt flavors. The finish is dry and short with a slight grapefruit aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.
