Bottle from Half Time. Pours darkish gold with a foamy white head. Aroma is sweetly floral. Medium body with a frothy carbonation. Flavor is roast malt with some resin hop. It’s pretty flavorful, but the IBUs probably aren’t super high. Still it finishes bitter, and it’s mighty tasty. I could drink a lot of this.

Clear copper with a white head. Light hops, some malts, pine, and some resin in the aroma. Similar flavor. Easy, tasty, refreshing Pale. Nice.

Bottle courtesy of keepersj12 in New Jersey. Poured a clear, dark golden colour with a good sized off white head. Nose had plenty of grassy hop and citrus fruit notes. Flavour was a slightly sweet affair with yet more fruit and hop . Not especially complex but a well struck balance evident. Gently lingering bitterness in the finish. Clean and really drinkable; a tidy session beer. Nice one.

Bottle from Secret Santa. Pours golden amber color with off white head. Aromas of pine hops and biscuit malts. Bready malt flavor with some pine hop bitterness. A little too malty for me. Medium body with average carbonation.

Bottle from Chevy Chase Beer & Wine, chilled for 8 hours. Very clear golden straw with a very small white head that disappears quickly. Little carbonation. Aroma of fresh flowers and grass, some citrus and a faint hint of black pepper. Taste is clean and crisp, slightly bitter edge but plenty of malt as well - good balance. Hint of sweetness at the beginning, finish is dry and nicely bitter. It’s always a pleasant surprise to find a subtle American pale ale that doesn’t clobber your palate with hops. Good example of the style.

Had a cup from the taps at PS1. Poured a rich orange with a fine layer of pure white head. Smelled of bitter hops. Flavor was mostly hoppy but with minor malt character. Some pine and citrus notes. Had a nice, crisp finish. Very good beer.

A straightforward, crisp, clean, tasty APA - not over the top with the hops like some are, which is good, since many brewers pretty much just make an IPA and call it a pale ale - smooth, clean crystal malt sweetness, with just enough of a hop bite to balance it out - lightly floral and citric in the finish - lively carbonation makes a for a refreshing mouthfeel - overall, quite nice.

Sample at the Eurostash tasting on 04/30/09: This brew is a clear copper-gold color with a medium bone white head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. The aroma is moderately hoppy with notes of bready malt. Medium body with grassy hops and malt flavors. The finish remains grassy and hoppy and does not last very long. Overall a decent and drinkable beer, but is not up to snuff with a lot of the APAs out there.
