This top fermenting amber-colored ale is brewed using generous amounts of malt and kettle hops. The trademark of this ale is its beautiful hop bouquet and taste that comes from a liberal dry hopping of the highest grade Cascade hops during the secondary fermentation. The malt firmness of this ale comes from the perfect mixture of two-row malted barley, carapils, and caramel specialty malts. The ale has an original gravity of 1060 and is fermented at 65 degrees farenheight which imparts the classic ale fruitiness to the brew.

Bottle. Sour pine hops aroma. Clear amber color with small head. Caramel malt and pine hops flavor. Well blended with a nice hops aftertaste. An above average APA.

12 oz.bottle, "Bottled during" Mar. Nice malty beery smell when I pop the cap, always a good start. Color is closer to a brown ale than a pale, thin head. Smell in the glass shows fruity malts and some fresh dry hops. Taste goes steep into malts, Plenty of sweetness left over, barely matched by the hop load. A slightly different take on a pale ale.

Slightly hazy copper body, thin off-white head. Bready aroma with grassy, slightly piney hops. Biscuity body with light sweet breads, balanced by earthy, grassy hops. Pedestrian but quaffable.

Bottle Pours a hazy medium red/amber witha modest white head. Aroma is bready and pilsnerish with a touch of hops. Flavors are consistant, toasted malts, a bit sweet and just enough hops to ballance. Feel is thin but smooth and carbonation is soft. Aftertaste is a faint malty, woody flavor. Not bad. Thanks to MrFzcto

Nice amber colour with a very thing off-white head. Smells of citrus and higher a.a. hops. Initial hoppy and slightly malty. A bit off on balance, the hops show more dominance throughout the beer, but it isn't too far off. The palate is pretty crisp and refreshing with a slight hop bitterness which leaves you waiting to take the next sip. Overall, a pretty decent APA with all considerations included! Brew date of: week 2, May 2003. I bought this 12 ounce bottle from Total Beverage in Thornton (Denver), Colorado.
