Backlog February 2009. Slightly unclear orange yellow body under a dense, fading white head. Nice hoppy aroma of citric fruits, grapefruit, grass and pine. Taste is average malty with a fine fruity bitterness and bitter aftertaste. Refreshing, easy to drink classic American pale ale.

Hoppy aroma of light malt, caramel, citrus, light tropical fruits. Flavour is hoppy and fruity with a medium bitter aftertaste. A very straightforward but tasty APA.

Can to cup. Pours a copper orange with moderate white head that retains well and has creamy aspects. Aroma is fruity and even slight bubblegum. A sweet graininess invades the background. Taste follows aroma with the malt more pronounced. Easy drinking and enjoyable.

Can shared. Pours clear golden with a fair frothy white head, fair lacing, medium body, slightly oily mouthfeel, bitter-sweet finish. Floral aromas, citrus, caramel, good balance between hops and malty sweetness, refreshing and easy going.

Can (shared by philduk, thanks). Pours dark golden. Aroma is sweet, citrus, mango. Flavor is sweet and bitter, fruity, citrus, tangerines, honey. Drinkability is ok. Overall: rather good, but would like to try fresher version (bb of the can is unreadable).
