Apr 10, 2009 On tap at The Federal, Durham, NC. Nice to have this one in the Triangle at last. Golden and lively, an inviting pour with faint traces of amber at the edges. Modest head, lively carbonation. The nose is nicely sweet, though not overpowering. The mouthfeel could be fuller, and the flavor is far more dry than the aroma would lead you to expect. Solid and sessionable.

Mar 29, 2009 This beer is always better on tap to me. You can get this ANYWHERE as long as you are in the Atlanta area. Again, if you get this on tap it is amazing. In the bottle, I don’t know what to think. Orange/copper in apperance. Nice citrus hop with very pungent aroma, but with the bottle the beer doesn’t seem as pungent. Would have rated the aroma better, but just too inconsistent for me. Nice hop flavor, with a semi-sweet malt balance. Again, in the bottle hop taste is muted slightly. A decent flavoring and bittering hop. On tap the hop flavor is great. The malts are less noticeable on tap, which I actually prefer. Decent A.P.A. Overall, decent local beer that I have had my fair share of.

Mar 27, 2009 I knew there was a reason I liked this beer... Cascade hops! I am not a big hop fan, but this extra pale was very nicely balanced and not too bitter. Aroma was obvious hops. Flavor was hefty on the hops, but balanced by a nice smooth malt sweetness for a very drinkable experience.
