12 oz bottle from Kroger. Light amber color with a small, white, bubbly head; head disappears quickly. Aroma is sweet and bready with some light, grassy hops, some citrus, and light caramel. Flavor is malty with medium-strength, bitter hops; very light touch of caramel and butter. Medium to medium-thin body. This is forgettable but solid, and it would go great with American and Italian food.

Not your best Pale Ale. I am no impressed with the palate, very bighting to the tounge and not the greatest taste either. Pours a bronze color with a white head. Overall not my favorite pale ale.

12 oz bottle. Pours amber, browns and golds. One finger head, rather frothy. Nose hoppy. Tastes more of malt, burnt caramel and molasses, particularly on the end. The slightly bitter finish left my mouth a bit gummy.

Poured a light/cloudy gold color. Advertised as an APA but the aroma was malty. The taste was extremely malty - I was looking for hops but got suckerpunched with the malt taste. It just wasn’t what I was looking for. This was almost a macrobrew Lager. Just bad.

Bottle: Amber pour with a sizeable white head with a decent amount of lacing. Aroma hints at floral hops, sweet caramel malts and mild fruity esters...flavor follows with a ever-so-subtle bitter hop finish. Too sweet, tastes like I’m sucking on a sugar cube wrapped in a hop leaf.

The aroma is floral with soap and caramel malt and maple syrup. The appearance is amber with a larger than average head for the style. The flavor is super sweet just like the aroma and dominated by sugar with flowers and bitter soap in the background. The palate is smooth. Everything about this beer is cloyingly sweet except the metallic aftertaste.
