Pours a nice golden red color with minimal head. Aroma is of hops and citrus along with a little grass and sweetness. Tastes hoppy and citrus with a nice bitter finish. A great Pale Ale.

Clear amber body that holds up a decent off-white head. Somewhat weak hop aroma. Slightly bitter flavor, enough malt sweetness to add some balance. Overall it’s just another IPA and a real disappointment considering the same brewery makes a fine Pale Ale, Harvest Ale and Celebration Ale.

2006. Poured into a snifter with wafting bubblegum. Deep mahogany with no head or apparent carbonation. Very nice balance -- at first sweet, but quickly joined by a hop finish that stays for a long time. None of the bubblegum notes come through in the flavor -- quite nice.
