| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 28, 2008 Bottle: Pours a light copper color with a medium-sized white head and some fine lacing. Light, sweet malt aroma. There’s some floral and piney hop accents that linger but aren’t really at the forefront. Light body leads to a flavor profile that follows the aroma exactly. NIce, session brew from the locals. lampeno420 (321), Zeeland, Michigan, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 29, 2008 Clean crisp ale. Decent hops throughout. You basic pale ale all around. The higher alcohol content isn’t noticed, which makes it a decent buy for a fun 6 pack night. Silphium (2138), Haslett, Michigan, USA

It was just a real good pale ale with a real well balanced flavor. Just a little light, but real tasty. the appearance was dark golden with a nice cloud to it. BBB63 (4238), La Porte, Indiana, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 8, 2007 Bottle and served in standard pint glass: Pours a amber hue with a nice rocky frothy head and good lace. The aroma has notes of citric PNW hops, caramel and bready malts, clove and pepper, dusty yeast esters. By far the best nose of any of the Warbird entries. The taste has a restrained grassy and resiny hop note balanced by a clean malt character. Some spice and herbal tones upon the finish. The mouth feel is medium-bodied and above average for the genre, mildly aggressive and yet smooth finish. A high quality APA, hope the new brewer doesn’t screw this one up.

Hoppy aroma has hints of citrus and floral. Flavor is malty with hints of grapefruit and caramel. Texture is creamy with a bitter finish. Well balance and very drinkable. A good brew for any pale ale lovers out there. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA
