Our American Pale Ale with a ton of Citra, Columbus and Cascade hops. Deep amber in color with an extremely well rounded hop and malt character. This beer gives hop heads what they are looking for without wrecking your palate; yet it is sufficiently balanced which is pleasing to many hop-timid beer drinkers. The finish is slightly dry and refreshing to the last drop. This beer will not disappoint!

Had this at the NOVA Fall Brewfest. Poured a clear, golden amber color with a small white head. Aroma was citrus hops, with a nice mellow malty character to it. Flavor was sweet malts, with plenty of hop character. Very refreshing.

20oz pour at Capitol Alehouse Innbrook. Pours a transparent, copper amber with some lacing, creamy white head. Nose is fruity, citrus, grapefruit, lemon, lime, floral, a little biscuit. Flavor was spot on, light caramel, some chewy grain and then plenty of hops, blood orange, grass, dried lemon peel, flower petals. Medium bodied, lightly zesty, refreshing finish. Very nice session ale.

Growler shared by a traveling HSC member. The beer pours a slightly hazy amber color with a medium fluffy beige head that dissipates steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of caramel malt and mild citrusy hops. Light body with a somewhat crisp character and flavors of sweet malt, caramel and hops. The finish is citrusy with a short mildly hoppy aftertaste. Pretty average overall.

Sampled on draft at the brewery. Pours a hazy amber-orange color with a medium creamy head. Aroma of leafy hops and some nutty malty notes. The taste is leafy hops, caramel, toffee and a bitter finish. Medium bodied.
