| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 27, 2008 Orange amber color with almost no head. Has a strong hop aroma. This honestly tastes like a watered down version of Dogfish heads 90 minute IPA, not bad. shackinetics (132), Florida, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 9, 2008 copper with moderate white head. Nice sweet, citrus/orange, pine aroma. Flavor doesn’t hold up as strong as the aroma. Bitter and piny, but falls short of the exciting pale ale flavor you’re hoping for... Hance07 (192), DownSouth, Georgia, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Dec 23, 2007 Pours copper with a small creamy white head. Some piney hops in the nose. Same for the taste but not to much going on here. KAggie97 (2477), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 21, 2007 Nice brew that doesn’t assume to be more than it is; hoppy onset with a malt finish. Nice balance of flavors. A bit thin on the mouthfeel, but then again even Jennifer Love Hewitt has some cauliflower on her thighs... Earlier Rating: 7/15/2004 Total Score: 3.6 I’m a sucker for a cute little guy wielding a pick-axe. (No, I DON’T play for the other team...not that there’s anything wrong with that.) I like this one. Crisp, and to the point. RSRIZZO (1369), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 1, 2007 Had this beer on 11/13/1998. Color is a good golden brown with good carbonation and head. Aroma is a fresh hop scent. Taste is full and hoppy. It starts with a medium body that goes down smooth. The finish is well rounded with a mild malt taste, accompanied by a nice hop bitterness and a fresh hop flavor. Its a very good Pale Ale. UnaBellaAlma (11), Blacksburg, Virginia, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 27, 2007 Bottle Clear amber pour with a bit of sediment and great microbubble head. Hoppy aroma followed by hoppy flavor with a bit of malt, very well balanced. Smooth, great session brew. ChainGangGuy (2613), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 25, 2007 Appearance: Pours a murky copper body with a tall, foamy off-white head.
Smell: Very subtle pale maltiness set against a pungent hop aroma with notes of apricots and grapefruit rinds.
Taste: Biscuit malt flavor with a slight, brief sweetness. Apricot and grapefruit with a moderate bitterness. A bit of sourness. Finishes dry with a lingering, persistent bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Moderate carbonation.
Drinkability: A little more bitterness than I’m looking for in an English Pale Ale, but overall it’s okay.
