3.1 A hazed dark amber ale with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, sweet caramel malt with grassy hops, treacle, pleasant. In mouth, biscuit malt with grassy hops, treacle, nice if a bit oxidized. BB March 2015.
3.3 1/2 pint (5%) by hand pump on 11 Jan 2020: earthy, grassy aroma, golden amber, good white head, good film of lacing, fruity, hoppy, creamy, quite a sweet finish.
3.4 Piana obfita gęsta bialutka po czasie się redukuje ale do końca pozostaje jej niewielka warstwa. Kolor jasny klarowny. Aromat tropikalny owocowy orzeźwiający lekko cytrynowy i ziołowy. Smak, jest wyczuwalna słodowość i chmielenie ale na średnim poziomie.Goryczka ledwie wyczuwalna i krótka, lekka szorstkość w piciu. Całość lekka mocno pijalna bez wyraźnego akcentu przewodniego. Niektóre polskie przedstawiciele stylu biją to piwo na głowę. Bardzo dobre szału nie ma.
3.9 0.33 l bottle from K-Citymarket Ojamo, Lohja. Nice American hopping with enough malty base.
3.4 From 330ml bottle. Decent take on US pale. I'm getting big sweet lychee and grape flavours, citrussey bitterness. Mod carbonation. Nice.
3.6 From backlog. Taster at Haand Festival. Golden with white head. Malts, hops, Caramel, Citrus.
2.7 Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
3.8 330ml Bottle. American Pale Ale. Quite crisp and light. Golden Amber in colour not unlike a mild bitter. An interesting take on an American Pale. Hoppier then you'd expect with a hint of citrus fruits like it's been shown a few lemons briefly during the brewing process, but enough to make a lasting impression on it which then lingers on the back of the tongue giving a very smooth finish. Crisp, light. Flavourful. Delicious
3.5 Bottle from Asda. Medium amber in colour. 1 finger head. Fruity aroma. Sweet very refreshing taste, moderate carbonation.
4.0 Luppoli molto ben bilanciati, rilascia piacevoli sentori agrumati e di albicocca in bocca. Carbonazione leggera, schiuma poco persistente. Una birra molto piacevole in puro stile APA
3.5 Blond orangé, limpide, mousse moyenne, nez marqué de houblons américains. En bouche, très légère acidité (pomme verte?) et amertume franche sans être trop explosive. Un goût fruité en fond, masqué par l'amertume. Réussi cependant.
3.5 Bottiglia. Sentori di luppolo e di agrumato vanno a dare soddisfazione al naso. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore è destinato a vita breve. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana medio-fine. Il liquido si presenta trasparente e anche qui la grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. La carbonazione è persistente ed insistita. Il colore è ramato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata. La continuità gustativa è buona. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. Sul tetto della bocca si depositano caratteristiche di miele, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, pompelmo, mela verde, menta, mango e vaniglia.
3.0 Bottle, 02/06/18. Aroma is fruity, general fruitiness, slight flower and lemon. Taste is slight citrus, slight caramel, slight lemon, slight lemon peel. Slight conifer, notes of passionfruit. Alright.

3.7 Pivo u flaši. Popijeno u Stella Beer2Go dućanu i kušaoni piva u Medulinu. Aroma slatko-narančasta i malo hmelja. Tijelo je solidno popunjeno. Gaziranost je vrlo blaga. Okus je kao lagana oranžada sa malo hmelja ....meni se sve to skupa jako svidjelo ..ali taj okus dosta odudara od "klasičnog" American Pale Ale stila , koji bi trebao biti prvenstveno Američki-Hmeljan , a ne voćan.. Najveći problem je šta je toliko pitka i ukusna , da bi je najradije eksirao :)
4.5 Zingy and citrus apa. Big and bold. Hoppy. V good.
