3.1/5  rDev -16%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 3
Appearance – Nice, hoppy orange in color and crystal clear with a good head that went down rather quickly.

Smell – This aroma is big on the grapefruit. I can also pick up a slight biscuity smell.

Taste – The hops, fuggle or Amarillo or both, lead things off here. The biscuity malt balance is appropriately light.

Mouthfeel – I thought this was the ale’s weak point. This was light-bodied and could have used a bit more character.

Drinkability – This is nice and refreshing if a bit on the light side for me.

Reviewed from notes. This was poured into a pint glass. The appearance was a nice looking slightly pale hazy orange color with some light descending streams of golden yellow rippling through the beer along the sides. The head had a nice one finger white foaminess that displayed a nice beauty to show a super nice foamy rockiness over top of the beer glass. The smell was intricate through some nice piney to slightly spicy features to mark their turf underneath my nose. The taste had a nice full sweet to bitter pine blended very nicely with a light citrus sweet to bitter hoppiness. There was a super nice citrusy somewhat spicy aftertaste and a dry finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was sharp but delicately woven into the blend of the intricacies of the body. Overall, nicely done APA that I would come back to.

More beery with a kiss of hops on tap at the Barbary for the Dead Milkmen. Has that just right amount of bitter hops to keep you coming back with a strong malt backbone. Slightly citric. Well carbonated and crisp dare I say a bit watery.

Huge frothy head. Huge malty aroma. Massive malty taste with solid hopping. Love it.

Let me start out by saying this...I was stunned at how similar this is to Bell's Two Hearted, there's a few slight differences that make this not quite on the same level, but what a great effort by a local brewery. Look is a coppery brown color with a thin head but with lasting wisps of foam and lacing. Smell has lots of floral and citrusy hops and some pine. Taste has big citrus flavor (lemon, orange, grapefruit...both the juices and the rinds), some pine, and some floral notes. Good balance between bitter and sweet. Feel is about medium with medium carbonation, finishes dry and clean. It's just slightly more harshly hopped and slightly rougher on the finish than Two Hearted, but overall, a fantastic APA option for beer lovers in PA and the nearby areas.
