Had this on tap at the brewpub. From notes.

A - Light golden pour. Bright with decnent carbonation. Spotty lace and a film of retention.

S - Very peppery. A little odd. Lot's of citrus too.

T - Definite pepper note there. Citrus as well. Lot's more dank hop later as it opens up.

M - Good carbonation, medium body, citrussy and litghly bitter finish.

O/D - Peppery note was a tad offputting. OK pale ale though. Being held back by that pepper though.

16 oz pour into a pilsner glass.

A: Pours a clear golden yellow with a one finger white head. Dissipates after a minute or two leaving a nice covering of lacing on the sides. Average amount of visible carbonation.

S: Great citrus hop aroma, grapefruit and mango dominate. Pine characteristics are very intense from the cedar.

T: Very good pale ale, starts off with a hop bouquet. Hops are similar to the aroma, citrus with a strong pine backing. Finish is what makes this beer great, very robust malt comes forward. It's a light malt but the flavor is a perfect compliment to the hop.

M: Medium body with ample carbonation. Crisp and refreshing finish.

Overall the cedar really gives this a unique taste. A very smooth pale ale that is real good for only being available at the airport.

Had this last week at CCB. I got it for my wife because I thought it was "light" ale and wouldn't be too hoppy for her. Needless to say, I ended up with it while she went over to cider.

Anyway, it was a crisp and "light" in color only, ale. Not really strong enough for me in ABV or hops but very respectable for the style.

CCB Tony Janus Pale
4, 3, 3.5, 3.5, 3.5
Clear pale light yellow in color. Served with a modest bubbly white head. Aroma is very light some pale malts, some citrus and little else. Taste is a very generic pale. Light caramel malts , some citrus and a little pine. Very simplistic. Medium body. Strong bitterness is not balanced. Appropriate carbonation.

On tap at Tampa airport, "Brewed exclusively on-site for our passengers".
$6.41 for a pint.

Light yellow, pale orange elixir, minimal white head sinks to a thin ring, copious lacing.

Floral hops, subtle pine and a wisp of cedar.

Tangy hops lingers with the cedar up front, gives way to a citrus finish.

Light-medium body, nicely carbonated.

The cedar is well balanced here which is a nice surprise. Refreshing brew and a nice find at TPA.

Pint on Tap at Cigar City Tampa FL for 5$

Appearance - Slightly hazy yellow colour with an average size fizzy white coloured head. There is an average amount of carbonation showing and there is some faint lacing. The head lasted for around 3 minutes.

Smell - Hops, malts, caramel, lemons/grapefruit

Taste & Mouth - There is an average amount of carbonation and I can taste caramel and hops. There is also some grapefruit and lemon (both juice and zest) and a bit of a graininess. It ends with a light bittersweet aftertaste.

Overall – A very drinkable APA that has a nice balance of flavours. It's actually quite refreshing and has a decent amount of hop bitterness. I can see this working as a good gateway beer to get people into hoppy brews.
