This is the new recipe replacing the original He’Brew Genesis ale. Balanced between a West Coast style pale and amber ale with just enough malt sweetness to highlight a flurry of hop aroma and flavor. Witness the evolution of our original creation.

A clear reddish amber ale with a thick mocha head, gusher. In mouth, sweet caramel malt with light sulfur notes, catty floral hops, light meaty notes. In mouth, a very malty example with resinous catty hops, white grapeskin, a bit thin but good.

bottle - Pours hazy orange with a one finger thick light tan head and looks very bubbly. The aroma is mainly of citrus hops. The flavor has some decent hops bitterness but could use more malt body. That really detracts from the beer for me. Just okay.

Crisp copper coloured body with a hint of a ruby tint and a little bronze showing as well with a nice three centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of earthy and soapy hops, some malt and a little nuttiness. Light-bodied; Nice fresh hop flavour at first with not much malt at all, a little earthiness and a very mild and subdued sweetness. Aftertaste is a bit of herbal and grassy hoppiness, and not much else - perhaps the faintest amount of malts. Overall, a nice and very easy to drink beer still with some decent flavours and a bit of hops. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Ramsey Liqours in Ramsey, New Jersey on 22-February-2013 for US$1.99 sampled at home in Washington on 05-March-2013.

Bottle from Whole Foods in Folsom, CA. Pours slightly hazy copper with a slight white head. Aroma is more floral than anything. Med body or less. Flavor is lightly resin with floral. There’s lightly roasty caramel for background. A bit too towards amber I’d say, but it’s certainly drinkable. Has a nicely bitter finish.

Bottle @ home, picked up at Argonaut Denver. Pours a hazy, dark red orange appearance with a big, light brown head. Spicy hoppy, mild grapefruity, herbal/earthy, toasty malty aroma. Prickly spicy, big herbal hoppy, somewhat piney, nicely toasted malty flavor. Nice session beer.
