Feb 1, 2008 Tasting @ Capone’s: Poured a clear golden yellow with not too much head. The aroma was that of some pine and earthy hops. The flavor was well balanced, with a clean hoppy finish. Very drinkable and very good tasting Pale Ale.

Jan 5, 2008 Pours a clear amber color. Aroma is pine with a light malt background. Taste is pine and grassy hops. Light in the citrus with a pretty big maltiness. A good APA, seems less "intense" than other Troegs beers. Good session beer, easy to drink.

Jan 1, 2008 A very nice pale ale, good balance of malt and hops, soapy hop aroma not too overpowering, flavor of cascade hops at first giving way to a malty finish.

Dec 3, 2007 Bottle. Pours a golden color. small head. Very good for a pale ale. I was surprised how hoppy it is, but it is well balanced just the same. There is a slight citrus taste and a touch of bitterness. It is very crisp. It is a good beer to drink while watching a football game.

Dec 3, 2007 Heavy malt flavors for a pale ale. Poignant hops settle in the mouth for a well subdued and balanced pale ale. nice copper color. Not much of a nose.

Nov 25, 2007 Bottle. I’m excited to find these guys in NY now. Amber pour with a quickly fading head. Citrus and floral hop aromas. Even malt flavors with bright and crisp citrusy hops. Has a bit of a minerally quality as well. Medium to full bodied. Pretty good APA.

Nov 16, 2007 Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright copper color with a large yellow-white head. The aroma was moderately sweet and fruity hops. The flavor was crisp, bitter and had a nice blend of fruity and floral hops and a light peppery undertone. The finish was longish and somewhat dry with a lingering hop presence. Very nice for the style.

Nov 9, 2007 Very nice floral hoppy aroma that belies a rather weak flavor and mouthfeel. Hops are nice, but almost no malt character. Rather disappointing considering Troegs numerous successes in other beers.
