Bottled. Hazy dark amber, small head. Aroma of grapefruit and mango. Dry, clean and crisp, a bit grainy. fairlyligt bodied with simple malt structure well hidden in American hops. Long bitter finish.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a white head. Aroma is dough yeasty and light fruity hops. Flavour is fresh hops, slight subdued by a caramel malt base. Gains some bitterness towards the finish. Quite classic pale ale with a mild tea like flavour to it.

Bottle, 5.3%. OK flavour hop aroma. Dark orange colour. The flavour gets a little citric and unpleasantly bitter.

An orange beer with a slight haze underneath a bubbly light orange head. The aroma is fresh and grassy combined with notes of lemon - my first guess was British hops, but the bottle claims Cascade - then not enough has been used. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of caramel, and this typically "We’ve just started microbrewing" note, that is hard to describe - but it is very rustic. It also has a hint of metal, before a slightly bitter end sets in, which in turn resides for a fruity aftertaste. Use more hops - please - otherwise it is not an APA.

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, small white head. Aroma of flowery hops and fruits. Flavour is flowery hops with some hints of sour candy. Sweetish fruity aftertaste. Very smooth beer. Some yeastiness all the way through.

Bottled (BBE 07/2006) Hazy nut brown, small off-white head. Yeasty, flowery hoppy nose. Quite typical APA - bready, hoppy, quite yeasty, sweet malty notes.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a slightly hazy amber golden with a lightly creamy, off-white head. A lightly citrusy nose from the Cascades. Medium-bodied with some caramel sweetness and a light bitterness in the finish. A decent but far from great APA. 100506

Bottle. Creamy white fair mostly deminishing head. Heavy cascade hoppy aroma. OK but thin flavor. Average finish. Watery palate and lively carbonated.
