Aroma of malt, fruits, some pine, hoppy notes. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a light bitter finish. Very refreshing. I enjoyed the aroma, but light bitterness just isn’t cutting it for APA. Drinkable, but a bit disappointing.

Bottled (from Ales by Mail). Deep orangeish amber colour with a mediumsized creamy slightly off-white head. Aroma is sweet malts, caramel, some sugary and mild toasted and earthy notes. Flavour is caramel and crystal malts with some biscuits, mild toasted tones, some floral and mild fruity notes. Pretty much a standard American amber ale than any pale ale or British style thing. Not that much hops in the finish.

Bomber from Bottles N Bins in Monterey. Pours copper with a slight, transient head. Aroma is mildly roasty caramel and hints of floral and fruit. Med body or nearly. Flavor is lightly roasty malt with some floral/fruit hop. Fits the APA style, but personally I’d prefer more hop. Either I’m suffering an allergic reaction or there’s a bit of spice in the finish. Drinkable.

Lightly hazy amber beer, decent cream colour head. Palate is light and minerally crisp. Smooth malts, fairly sweet, little milky lactose cream. Mild caramel. Touch of ripe fruits. Smooth dry finish. It’s wet and inoffensive but much too malt led for the style.

Bottle from Ales By Mail; clear copper pour with a creamy magnolia head, quite a malty aroma with some caramel, taste has caramel first then backed up with some earthy hop, light bitterness.
