Aroma of citrus, orange, tropical fruits, soft malt, pine resin, hops. Flavour can’t quite keep up, being light to moderate sweet and moderate bitter. Could use a lot more bitterness, but I definitely enjoyed the fruity aroma.

Aroma of orange, lime and honey. Flavour is medium sweet. Well... I kind of like the aroma, it has some nice orange and honey touches that were perfectly palatable. But then the artificial sweetish flavour and thin weak body ruin it all.

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. Orangeish golden colour with a small white foamy head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is zesty, caramelly and mild nectary notes. Flavour is earthy, some caramel, mild zest as well as some slight grassy and grainy notes. Aroma still quite ok, but flavour did have some signs of age.

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.

Bottled (Ales by Mail). Golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is fruity, some honey, mild floral and earthy notes. Flavour is overly sweet toffeeish with some earth, herbs and some mild cookies with also some slight honey tones. A slight lurking tartness too.

Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours burnished gold with a large foamy white head. Lots of citrus/pine in aroma, but there's hints of passion fruit and melon. Med plus body. Flavor is mildly roasty malt, lots of citrus/pine and passion fruit and melon. Towards dry. More than towards bitter. Good stuff.
