On tap at the brewpub. Clear gold with a white head. Sweet orange and tangerine nose. Flavor follows, with some sweet caramel. Solid.

on tap-pours an off white head that laces and gold color. Aroma is medium malt-some caramel, some pine. Taste is medium malt-some caramel, secondary pine hops. Easy drinking. Mild carbonation.

Pours a clear dark gold color with a small ring of white lace. Aroma of citrusy and floral hops. Flavor of citrusy, floral hops with some malt presence. The body is light while the carbonation is lively. This is definitely not a homerun, but at least it’s a base hit.

En fût. Pinte dégustée chez The Tap (Haverhill, MA). Arôme: Odeur d’agrumes. Apparence: La couleur est orangée avec une très faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Léger goût d’houblon avec une pointe de miel fruité. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une textuer huileuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Arrière goût fruité. (Rating #1689)

My Bottom Line:
Floral, citrusy hoppiness wades into a svelte and an almost watery mouthfeel until wooden, leafy bitterness tickles the finish of this balanced yet unmemorable American Pale Ale.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A ring of foam circles the clear amber.
-The flavor profile is balanced, yet the honeyed malt flavors are never talkative enough to create interest.
-The Glacier hops used impart an orangey fruitiness as well.
-The end result is very drinkable, but does not compel you to get a second pint.

On tap at the brewpub.
