"This was a really good pale ale. Great color - a nice copper - and a really nice head. Good citrus flavors and not too bitter. The flavor was incredible and distinguished this beer from its peers."

"This one poured a nice copper color with a good head. It had a strong hoppy aroma with a slightly hopped flavor and a firm malt backbone. This one went down nice and smooth."

"This beer could have gone either way. It wasn't bad, but neither was it good. I guess for me it really suffers the "plain jane" fate because while there were no flaws, it just didn't impress me enough to consider this beer anything more than "just another beer". The beer pours out a nice copper/amber color, solidly built head and an aroma of light flowers and some citrus zing. The problem I had was...where's the flavors? I mean, with the aroma it was telling me that I might get a decent APA here, but it just didn't deliver no matter how much it warmed up. Sure there was some faint, soft caramel malts and some lifeless citrus hop bitterness but it was on life support. A ho-hum beer for sure. Next! "

"Cask@GBBF2007.Deep golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruits, hops, some alcohol and honey. Also quite wooden notes. Flavour is very much the same. "

[5] Review by Phishpond417 from Madtown, Wisc, USA who has tried this beer once. (7/16/2007 5:10:34 PM)
"Another nice one from Smuttynose. Pleasent citrusy character, with a bright floral taste and grapefruit aroma. It pours a clear copper colour with a plentiful head, and a nice lacing. Hops are well integrated, not too overpowering, but well balanced and firm for an APA."
