Aug 28, 2009 12 oz bottle purchased at Olive or Twist in Platte City, Missouri. January 2009 notched on the label. Pour is hazed golden orange with a one inch off white head. Good lacing coats the glass. Nice looking. Aroma of toasty earthy maltiness with sweet fruit hoppiness present behind that. A bit of woody resin in there as well. Taste is big caramel malt out of the gate, tempered a bit by the resin hops and sweet fruit. Caramel is present in the back. Palate is low carbonation, medium bodied, coats the mouth nicely. Overall a nice take on a style I like.

Fruit and hop aroma. White head. Golden coloured and hoppy with some alcohol present. Smooth on the palate with a crisp and slightly dry bitter finish.

Aug 21, 2009 Aroma is pretty light, but pleasant. Flavor is clean and mostly of hops, not much else. Carbonation is a little sharp and bitter. Overall, the beer is refreshing and clean, but not all that interesting.

Aug 13, 2009 Pours a hazy amber-orange color with medium white head. Strong hoppy and citrus-grapefruit aroma. Taste is definitely grapefruit and earthy hops. Not much malt, kind of one dimensional. Texture is a bit creamy, high carbonation. Medium bodied. Decent pale ale.

Jul 29, 2009 Deep hazy orange appearance with a clean orange zest aroma. Lightly sweet flavor to a short, lightly bitter finish. Less hoppy than other pale ales. A good balance.
