Bradrcr (631), Renton, Washington, USA Dec 1, 2008 9/26/08 From the bottle. Aroma is caramel sweetness forward with a strongly bitter hop background. Appearance is clear yellow gold with a well maintained white head. Flavor is tangy citrus forward, followed by sweetness, but not well balanced. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a low carb texture and starchy background. Overall, just a little tough to drink. While not a huge flaw in general, the starchy note really affects this brew. Angeloregon (2023), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 24, 2008 On tap at Belmont Station in Portland, Oregon--Golden-amber body brew with a medium healthy-looking whitish head. Fluffy, even-tempered brew. Nice balance of malts and hops. Light and caramel citrus hopped body. Nice level of bitterness. Delicious summer beer! riversideAK (1755), Shoreline, Washington, USA Aug 11, 2008 Pours golden amber with a nice lasting head and great lacing. A nice looking brew. The aroma is a nice balanced mix of light floral and citrus hops and moderately sweet malts. Nice hops upfront, a nice caramel and bready malt flavor comes through with more light citrus and floral hops in the finish. Nice crisp and moderately bitter APA. ABUSEDGOAT (1924), California, USA Jul 31, 2008 Amber colored, moderate head, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is citrus, pine, some grapefruit and caramel. Medium bodied, moderate to light bitterness. Decent. anders37 (2827), Malmö, Sweden Jul 23, 2008 Draught @ the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. Fruity malty floral hoppy aroma with some hints of citrus. Malty hoppy grapefruit flavor. Long maly hoppy bitter grapefruit finish with some bitterness in the aftertaste.
