Bottle from Vintage Cellar. Pours amber with a creamy beige head. Aroma is sweet malt covered by fruity and floral hop. Flavor is citrus and floral hop over mildly roasted malt. Seems well balanced. There’s a lot of hop, but the result isn’t extremely bitter. Good beer.

Bottle. Beer of the month club. Slightly hazy amber with a medium off-white head. Nice aroma of floral and citric hops with some piney notes. Bitter piney and grapefruity hops flavor backed by some caramelly and biscuity malt sweetness. Medium-bodied. A nice APA.

HA HA - to call this an APA is very funny. From its opening of the screw top bottle to the finish this stuff is grapefruit chewing and pine tar smelling IPA. So is the finish. Better restyle this one, heheh. On style for IPA and even borders on IIPA territory. Rude crude and rototilling brewed.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark orange-amber color with a huge creamy orange-white head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was sweet caramel, pineapple and grapefruit. The flavor was tangy and tart with notes of sweet pineapple, pine, grapefruit, lemon and caramel. The finish was long, sweet, tangy and fruity. Medium body. Nicely balanced. Solid.

Pour is a bright orange with a large white head. Aroma is a nice piney hop with some citrus zest. Flavor is more of a mild hop. Malts are weak but there in the backround. Easy drinking light pale ale.

Bottle. Pours a golden red with little head and aromas of medicinal/herbal hops. Flavor is lightly malty (honey and caramel) with lots of medicinal hops that have a bit of a redeeming citrus aftertaste to them. The aftertaste is inconsistent, though, and it seems like it only appears when I’m not looking for it.

12oz bottle. Pours a copper color with a moderately large head. Aroma is relatively hoppy - flavor is pretty grassy hops, with touch of malts. A decent pale ale, though I probably would have enjoyed it more had it included a bit more hop punch.
