3.6 Draft at the Trolley Stop in Dayton. Pours clear amber with a fizzy off white head and lots of lacing. Tastes sweet, like sugary grapefruit and orange, strong pine, and resin. Medium body and low/medium carbonation. Smells like musky orange, grapefruit, hops, pine.
3.5 12 oz. bottle from my Secret Santa umich03jm. Thanks man! Pours an orangish color with a medium off white head. Aroma of citrus and pine, sweet pale and caramel malt, fairly hop forward, nice. Flavor is hoppy, fairly bitter with some pale malt sweetness. Some cereal grain notes, some bread and mild orange peel notes. Medium bodied, medium carbonation. Pretty interesting. Glad I got to try this one.

3.4 12oz bottle picked up at Dutchs. Hazy, super murky unfitlered orange-tan-brown body. Thin, oily off-white head. Has a nice dry, citrus, feel. Grapefruit, orange peel. Not quite World Class, but a nice example of the classic American hops. Comes off pretty full bodied. Imperfect overall feel, some buttery undertones. Decent.
4.3 The most easy drinker that I know of. Perfect balance between the malt and the hops. Not to bitter with a perfect amount if alcohol.

3.9 Bottle from Save On. Hazy copper with lasting head and lace. Citrus mint and a little soap in aroma. Peach mango fruity mild sweetness some bready malt medium assertive woody pine and mild grapefruit tangerine fairly dry finish. Medium body and fine internal carbo that accentuates the hops. Very good.
3.1 12 oz bottle. (Dutch’s Bottle Shop) Cincinnati, OH. Clear lively amber colour with a small frothy white head. Mild hops, fruit tea and malt but no bitterness in the aroma. Fruit tea, malt, moderate bitterness and dryness in the flavour. Much more bitter than an average APA. Quite harsh. Low carbonation.

3.4 On tap at TBK. Pours an orange color with a bit of a white head. Lacing falls with the beer. The taste is malty but bitter. Not a ton of hop flavor but it is in the aroma.
3.7 Bottle courtesy of GandGKevin on his trip to Cleveland. Thanks Kevin! Coppery amber pour with a short white head. Aroma was not as hoppy as expected but has citrus, floral notes, light caramel, sweet malt and hints of toffee. Taste is floral hops, spicy hops, citrus fruit, sweet malt and caramel. Body is medium with a strong, dense carbonation and a light lingering hop bitterness. Ends with more citrus fruit, tropical fruit, floral hops, caramel and sweet , toasted malt notes.

3.5 Bottle. Pours clear amber with a small white head that dissipates with decent lacing. Aroma is caramel and pine resin. Flavor is caramel, resin, spruce, light sweet and light bitter. Light to medium body. Not getting much citrus from this one. Fairly malty APA, but not a bat drink.
3.8 Pours a hazy orange. The aroma of pine fills out the nose, with the flavor leaning towards pine, grapefruit, and a slight sweetness followed by an assertive bitterness the lingers with the finish.
3.7 Bottle. Pours a dark, hazy gold with some white head. Aroma and flavor is bitter citrus hops. Nicely balanced, well made beer.
3.5 Bottle, not sure how fresh. Mostly clear amber with a medium off-white head. Aroma is mostly hops; grapefruit, berries. Taste is medium-heavy sweet, mild-medium bitter. Finish is lightly bitter. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation.
2.7 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a very large sized head of foamy with a frothy top off-white colored bubbles that were quickly diminishing and left behind a softly carbonated transparent light golden orange colored body. The aroma was malty and musty. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish. The weak flavor contained notes of hops and malt. An OK brew just nothing special.
