Aug 1, 2009 Aroma of citrus especially grapefruit and hops. Dark amber color with a little head with nice lacing on my glass. Grapefruity, hoppy taste that was refreshing. A nice pale ale. "

Aug 1, 2009 Had a draught at a local establishment that arrive with little head retention. Probably sat for a minute or two before finding my table. Its crystal clear amber appearance, coupled with its citrus and slightly floral hop aroma made me want to dive into the pint. A sip affirms the hop character, and reveals a well balanced ale. A bit thin, but refreshingly crisp, this brew is very session worthy.

Jul 31, 2009 Draught: This one pours a clear amber color with a decent sized off-white head. It leaves some lacing down the side of the glass. The aroma is interesting. There are grassy, earthy hops and another aroma in there it too. Others have said spruce, but I think it almost smells like a whiff of mint. The same characteristic translates into the taste. It is slightly bitter, with a decent body. The earthy and grassy hops are there, but so is the other hop note. Maybe it is psychological from the aroma, but I get a faint taste of mint.

Jul 31, 2009 Bottle. Pour is a coppery orange with a little bit of head and aromas of orange blossoms and spruce trees. Flavor is pretty darn good, but not near full enough. The sweet orange-ness goes well with the pine finish, but it needs more oomph to keep it from being watery. Still, this is a pretty decent surprise.

Jul 31, 2009 A very tasty pale ale. Nice and smooth with a nice balance of hops. Almost an IPA with the hop content, but just enough malt to keep it clean. Pours light golden with a short head.

Jul 28, 2009 On tap at the Oldsmar Tap House. Pours copper with gold edges and thin tan head. The aroma is modest in its crystal malt and citrus hop qualities. The taste is similar with sweet crystal malts and citrus. Flavorful pale ale.
