Pronounced Liberty and Cascade hops, medium malt flavor. A hoppy American-style Pale Ale from prohibition days when a toy tiger in the window alerted patrons to a hidden speakeasy.

Bottle. Sweet orange and caramel aroma. Cloudy orange with a moderate off-white soapy head, spotty lacing. Pine and citrus hops flavor nicely balanced with caramel and biscuity malt. Medium body and carbonation.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a reddish tint and a white head that lasted for a bit. Aroma is malty for the most part, has a bit of a musty wood note. Flavor is hoppy with a combination of citrus and wet pine notes.

There is not much to this beer. Light malt aroma. Minimal hops and a gold color. It is too light and thin.

Bottle. Very nice peach/apricot malt aroma with slight hops. Hazy orange amber with moderate head. Pronounced malt flavor for an APA expertly blended with the piney hops. I really enjoy this beer due to it having a much stronger malt flavor than the average APA. Good stuff.

Pour is a cloudy brown with a average white head. Aroma is a nice mix of earthy hops and dark malts. Also has a rye aroma to it. Flavor is decent as well. Very much citrus hops with some butterscotch and dark fruit. Never heard of this brewer before but this is pretty darn good.

bottle - Pours copper with a big fluffy head and a pretty good hop aroma. The flavor seems lacking though with flat, rather off tasting hops joined by mild malts in an overly thin brew. A dry finish ends this so-so offering from Barley Island.

Hazy gold ale with barley any head. Slightly off chemical perfume aroma with beginning of band aid and apples. Nice hops and malts but the beer is definitely off, as there is a long sourness, almost grainy in post taste. If it was fresh, this could be good.

From a sampler: This brew pours a rich amber color with a medium thick off-white head. Thin and sticky lacing. The aroma consists of hops and citrus. Medium-bodied and nicely hopped, with some fruit and malt present in the flavor as well. The finish is crisp and dry. Overall this is pretty decent, if a little bland.
