Nov 12, 2009 Tap @ Wedge Brewing Co.
Cloudy, deep golden color. Flavor has hints of Halls Honey-Lemon throat lozenge. Aroma of floral hops, honey, and sea mist. Very crisp, refreshing. A bit thirst quenching. Perfectly balanced.

Feb 1, 2009 Poured a slightly hazy copper with a small but lasting white head that leaves good lacing. Aroma of fresh sweet malt,citrus hops, and a hint of caramel. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium mouthfeel with a mild to moderate amount of bitterness and nice crisp finish. They packed in a whole bunch of flavor into a small beer. Very good.

Feb 1, 2009 On tap at the Cask Beer Festival Atlanta. This was the best of the bunch. (21 casks) Closest thing to cask ale, anyway. 5% ABV says you dont have to brew to a high gravity to produce a good beer!

Feb 1, 2009 Enjoyed a couple times at the Atlanta Cask Ale Tasting. It was nice to see there was at least a few cask offerings with sensible ABV percentages.
Appearance: Clear, light copper body with a thin, bubbly, whitish head.
Smell: Aroma of sweetened lemon zest with a backing of basic pale malts.
Taste: Lightly grainy pale malts with a small pinch of powdered sugar. Hmm, there’s a peculiar and fairly distinct taste of green tea early on. Lemony hop character with a medium bitterness. Finishes dry and bittersweet.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-low carbonation.
Drinkability: Simply a reasonably tasty, enjoyable pale ale.

Oct 5, 2009 Yellow pour with creamy white head and lace. An almost cat pee hoppiness, light/medium malt, perfume on the nose. Medium malt, hard citrus, very nice finishing bitter. Medium bodied with aggressive carbonation.

Nov 26, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Cloudy orange, thin head. Not that cloudy, just a bit cloudy. Citrusy, mildly piney aroma. Similiar flavor, nothing too complicated. Vaery tasty, nice session pale.

Dec 16, 2008 On tap. Pours cloudy light gold with a very small head. Hoppy, yes, but not like their IPA. Still, fresh, stanky, zesty hops are present with hints at lemon, grass ,and various citrus. The flavor is similar with suggestions of tea, lemonade, and a husky, pitty bitterness throughout. This is smooth and light with a very fresh and natural hop character. It is basically the IPA X 0.5 sessionable.

Feb 1, 2009 Cask at the Atlanta Cask Ale Tasting.
Pours a clear golden amber with a small bubbly head.
The aroma is dominated by the floral fry hops up front which carry the smell throughout with some caramel malts int he background.
The hops are again prevalent in the taste up front with some lemon grass and hints of pine. The malts are more bready that anything and form the backbone of this one before the hops come back and leave a dry bitterness in the finish.
The mouthfeel is slick and fairly light with little carbonation.
This was a very drinkable pale ale that represents a more traditional cask ale vs. some of the other big offerings at the ACAT.
