12oz bottle into a RR snifter...
A - Pours a golden orange with a one finger off white head that dissipates at a hasty pace. Lacing is minimal...
S - Lots of bready/toasted notes with a little citrus in the mix...
T - Bready malts up front with a mellow citrus fruit presence. Finishes with mild bitter hops and some lingering malt...
M - Pretty thin. On the lighter side of being medium bodied with a good amount of carbonation...
O - Love H24, but this one isn't doing it for me. To much bread, and not enough of a citrus hop presence. Think i'll stick with their other brews...
Cheers...

On tap at Hangar 24 in Redlands, CA.
Pours a clear golden color with an off-white head that fades to an oily film on the top of the beer. Smell is of malt and some herbal/pine hops. Taste is pretty much the same. There is a mild bitterness on the palate after each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good pale ale that is pretty tasty.

s: kinda faint but there is citrus and a bready grain smell.
t: citrus hops with kinda a burnt biscuit taste to it. also taste oats.
m: kinda thick body with very little carbonation also leaves a burnt bitter aftertaste.
o: decent beer at best, not one i would seek out.

12 oz. bottle,
A: Pours a super clear light amber with a large soapy white head. Excellent retention with good lace.
S: Grapefruit and orange rind with a bit of ashiness that wasn't too hot.
T: Sweet orange oil, almost creamy at points. Definite floral aspect. A little light, but gets better as warms.
M: Crisp biting carbonation, frothy, light-bodied overall, thin at times, but refreshing.
O: My first impression was atrocious, but it really worked itself out. Strange how that can happen with beer (and wine too). Still pretty much an average pale ale, but it has its moments.

Bottle cracked during the Great Power Apocalypse of 2011 and poured into a snifter.
A: Pale gold with a mountain of white foam. Retention is very good. Lacing is scattered.
S: Biscuity malt lays a respectable foundation for a plethora of citrus. Tangerine blends with peach and orange. The hops are bright and vibrant.
T: Smooth upper moderate bitterness with a dash of biscuity sweetness. Pine is faint, but there are strong notes of tangerine and orange. The beer is very smooth with no harshness, alcohol, or astringency. It's pretty balanced, but the malt is not heavy bread and caramel so it's pretty nice.
M: Lower medium body with upper moderate carbonation. The mouthfeel is dry and crisp.
Overall: This was surprisingly good. Light, hoppy, refreshable, and highly drinkable. Recommended.

Poured into a pint glass from your standard 12 oz. bottle. Shows a deep straw in color with a bit of haze. Finger of nearly white foam offer decent retention and rather light lacing.
Initially offered some yeast and hop notes on the aroma with yeast settling out pretty swiftly. This is followed briefly by some citric hop aromas but soon settles to and remains rather odd in nature. Not bad but not good, maybe not fresh? Bit dank at times.
Flavor is decent, though quite light and uninspiring with a flash of orange on the finish. Body and feel are light for the style. Finish is lightly grainy and brief, with a touch of lemon. So so overall, but nice to see a Pale Ale that's actually pale.
