On cask at the brewpub. Pours with a large, frothy, off-white head with a hazed orange body. Aroma is soft, fruity, light spice, raisins, dates and sarsaparilla. Taste is bitter with a lot of tannins extracted from the grain, molasses, alcohol. Medium carbonation for a cask beer.

On tap. Pours with a clear amber body and a small tan head. Aroma reminds me of irish whiskey for some reason, light fruit notes, dry and possibly burnt caramel. Taste is fruity, grainy, dry, diacetyl. Slick mouthfeel, medium fizz. My least favorite Taps beer that I have tried to date.

On tap at Father’s Office as "Cali Gold XPA". I think several of the entries for Tap’s need to be merged. Pours with a huge white head over a clear golden body. Head lasts for a long time. Aroma is fruity, tons of tropical fruit and pine. No hint of malt. Taste is tropical fruit, herbally, mango. All hops. This is a good...no, great and fruity pale ale that knocks on the door of most IPA’s. Very dry with lively bubbles. Great!

Pint thanks to dirtymartini for the recommendation. Pours with a large white head and a mostly clear golden body. Aroma of florals, grass notes and a lot of hops. Taste is hoppy, crisp, and bready.It is very bitter and exactly what I want from an American Pils. Lively bubbles with a dry mouthfeel.
