Very tasty. Not one of the more hoppy pale ales, but still balanced between bitter and malt sweet. Super easy drinking.

Bottle 355ml @ Ashley’s, Ann Arbor, MI
Pours clear deep golden with a white head. Aroma has notes of malt, caramel, dried fruits and floral.Taste is medium sweet and light to medium bitter with a long malty, fruity and floral finish. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottle, at Ashley’s, Ann Arbor. A clear dark golden beer with a small off-white head. It’s got a light bread touch in the aroma, with fruityness and some pine cones, a tad boring actually. It’s full bodied, smooth and semi-dry, with a nice carbonation level. Caramel, a nice bitterness, some pine cones and a generic fruityness in the flavor. Some metallic notes on the very end. Decent indeed, but I find it a bit malty. 150615

Lots of oranges and caramel in the nose with hints of tropical fruit. Nicely balanced and fairly bitter finish. Nice stuff.

Old rating. Bottle from Old Town. Pours a clear orange with medium eggshell colored head. Citrus, caramel malts on the nose. Starts out fairly sweet on the palate with a nice bitter finish. Well-balanced but not very interesting...still solid.

Canned vegetables, corn husks, and dandelion bouquet. Clear amber, medium head. Dandelion, honey, and hay, good intensity, but again with significant DMS present. Tinny as well. Hop forward and flavorful, but flawed.

On tap at bar in PHL. Pours a clear light gold with full white head that retains well. Massive citrus hop aroma with slight dank. Flavor is hop forward with mix of citrus and pine. Very tasty APA.

Reviewed from notes.
Always poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a nice golden amber close to orange color with a decent transparency about it and highlighting some light carbonation that was seen rising. The head was about a finger’s worth and slightly foamy as the head died and left some thick lacing clinging fairly nicely.
The smell had a super nice allocation of bitter piney to slightly citrusy hops and still lets a nice sweetness take the helm at odd times throughout the beer (doesn’t really combine together), but still is good for the most part.
The taste was mainly sweet and bitter at separate times.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium in body with a decent sessionable quality about it. The carbonation is still good and slightly sharp for an APA.
Overall, I say this was a nicely done APA for the most part. Though something about the smell was a bit different, I’d still have this one again.
