Feels a bit thin but smells fantastic and the taste is on par with most beers of this style. Very sessionable and cheaper than similar offerings from Stone Brewing Co. Would have this again if looking for a drinkable APA.

Pours a cloudy amber color. 1/4 inch head of an off-white color. Decent retention and slight lacing. Smells of piney hops, slight citrus hops, hint of spicy hops, sweet malt, and a hint of alcohol. Fits the style of an American Pale Ale. Mouth feel is smooth and clean, with an average carbonation level. There is also a slight bitterness. Tastes of piney hops, slight citrus hops, caramel malt, hint of tea, hint of spicy hops, sweet malt, and a hint of alcohol. Overall, weak appearance, decent blend, but too sharp, body is on the weaker side, and decent aroma.

Poured from 12 oz bottle into chilled glass mug. Colour is amber/orange with a tan head that takes awhile to settle. Plenty of lacing. Smells slightly floral and fruity. Taste mildly citrus mixed with the fruits. Good mouthfeel but overall I would say this is just slightly better than an average APA. Good summertime beer. Prost!

On-tap served in a pint glass at Wishbeer, Bangkok.
Transparent gold amber in color, it comes with massive white silky head that withstands against the time with remarkable retention before slowly subsiding to an eternal layer of fluffy crown and leaving numerous of sticky lacing patch and spot all around.
The aroma of fruity citrus, lemon, floral, yet a bit earthy and grassy from hop is nicely mingled with some hint of wheat, biscuity, caramel, and toasted grain from malt, well balance.
Grain, wheat, and toasted malt take the lead together with biscuit and subtle sweet caramel. Then it is sourness and fruitiness of citrus and lime while same time hop joins in providing notes of earthy, grassy, and some bitter end. The aftertaste is medium lasting hop bitterness and toasted grain.
The body is medium with rather low carbonation, a bit flat. The mouthfeel is semi-smooth with some crisp and refreshing feel. Finish is dry.
Decent Pale Ale with very eye-catchy look, the aroma is also quite nice but the taste is a bit get lost unfortunately.

12oz bottle. Poured out a clear, golden-amber color with a small, white head of foam. It smelled of roasted malt, caramel and citrus. Tasted of toasted caramel with pine and a subtle bitterness.

Bottle from Albertsons. Nice feel overall, mild aroma, taste has a bit of a snap to it. Detecting more pilsener notes than APA, especially on the finish. average.

Bottled 12/1/15.
Pours a hazy honey orange with a foamy tan head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Foamy streaks of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of grain, toast, and earthy hop aromas. Taste is much the same with grain, grapefruit juice, citrus zest, and earthy hop flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is an above average beer that is a drinkable, but there is nothing that really stands out about this one.
Serving type: bottle.
