Wow this was another unexpected gem from Widmer Brothers. Aroma was very nice. All grassy hops and decently strong. Pour was not very pale a dark amber with a thin white ring for a head. Taste was big and full and mostly all citrus and grassy hops with a burnt roasted malt and burnt caramel backbone. Very good beer and very unique to style.

Dec 30, 2009 This is a great summer beer. A cross between a wit and a pale with some really nice spices mixed in. An enjoyable beer for the pro and a great introductory beer.

Dec 27, 2009 12 oz bottle. Nice hoppy nose--grapefruit, pine. Pours copper with watery lacing. Taste is moderately bitter at first; finishes even more bitter. Medium bodied. Overall a pretty good APA, but there’s better out there.

Dec 26, 2009 Bottle. Pours amber with an off white head. Nice floral citric hoppy aroma with some lighter malty notes. Light floral and citric hop notes in the flavor with some well balanced sweet malts. Pretty good.

Dec 5, 2009 Tasted at Beer Dabbler event in St. Paul. I really like this pale ale. Classic pin and grapefruit with a bit extra malt, nut and sweetness. Dry finish.

Dec 5, 2009 12 oz. bottle. LIght but pleasant citrus aroma. Pours a rich copper with a nice cream head. Pleasant aroma builds you up but the beer just dies on the tongue. Very light malt and citrus flavor. Even balance of not much malt and not much citrus. Light body with a thin texture but nicely carbonated. Soft and lively on the tongue. Finishes extremely crisp. It’s not bad but it doesn’t bring anything that would make me want to buy it again.

Dec 5, 2009 12 oz. amber pour from bottle. The word balance comes to mind. Great balance of hops and citrus give this beer a smooth, refreshing taste. Nothing is out of balance; everything in just the right measure. Excellent.

Dec 1, 2009 Draft at the local with dinner. First taste is hoppy followed by a guava fruitfulness. Body is medium but just. Thin watery finish. Decent short-lived tan head.

Nov 30, 2009 Bottle. Pours a copper color with a small beige head. Taste is of citrus, hops, pine, caramel and some malt. Is a little sweet. Similar aroma. Slightly thin. Bitter finish and aftertaste. Easy to drink. Not bad, but not great either.
