A classic 80's Californian pale ale. 101 is light in color and delicious in taste, with a light fruity. The hops have been kept freshly balanced, without excessive bitterness and the aroma is distinguished by the citrus, delicate resin and a touch of exotic fruit brought by Amarillo and Cascade hops.

Draught @ Brewdog helsinki. Pours amber colored, thin white head. Sweet oranges in aroma, white grapes, hint of toffee. Flavor has sweet tropical fruits, orange and pineapples. Quite thin body. Ok bitterness. Not a bad brew to debut with.

Draught @ Brewdog Helsinki Pours orange with a smooth head. Aroma of mild grassy hops, hints of crisp malts, caramel, toffee and citrus. Taste is smooth, slightly bitter and grassy with hints of malts, citrus and pine. Finish is crisp, mildly bitter and grassy. Okay, quite easy going, but a bit dull and watery pale ale. 6-3-6-3-12 = 3.0. Re-rated on 13.10.2015. Draught @ Stone’s. Feels a bit more balanced and fruity. Still a bit dull and too easy going, though.

Tap at Black Door, Helsinki. Colour is clear light orange with small white head. Aromas and flavours: Fruits, citrus, hops and malts. Very thin. Hard to believe this is 5.8%. Clean and fresh but easy to forget. Wrong beer for this time of year.

(Keg at Kaski, 20150206) The beer poured amber and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness, pine and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, pine, biscuits, malts, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A nice straight forward APA. No gimmicks.
