On draft at the Yardhouse in Phoenix, served yellow in color with a good head and good lacing. Floral hops were the feature in the aroma that caused me to shake my head before getting started (not my favorite hopping approach to beer), almost like the floral aroma that now annoys me in Blue Moon. Flavor revealed some fruitiness underneath, but the floral hops were too much (not in quantity or bitterness, just too accented) for me, English style or not. Mouthfeel was moderate, finishing a little bit watery, kinda like flower water. Not my cup of tea (or beer). Needed more malts, more depth of flavor.

A cloudy yellow appearance. A huge lemon aroma. The flavor is sort of sour and slightly bitter with some lemons and oranges showing. The finish is also sour. It was alright.

Pours a hazy, pale amber with a good, white head. The aroma is a juicy orange hoppiness. Light bodied malt, a touch of cracker, but easy drinking without being too boring.

Medium brown color. Medium head. Aroma is malty, fruity and slightly sweet. A medium bodied pale ale. Malts are slightly sweet and fruity. Hops are spicy. A milder flavored pale ale, more to the English Style. Well balanced. Very drinkable. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finishis dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
