Aroma was crisp, with hints of hop. Colour is a slightly murky golden with little noticable carbonation. Nice fluffy head that kept up for a bit. Taste is very typically...mmm...welll....beer. Hoppy aftertaste. Decent, but I’m not sure why anyone would choose this over any other beer. Nothing really to distinguish it from your run-of-the-mill brew.

Not bad at all, one of the few pale ale’s I like. Pours a dark gold color with a very thick head. Aroma is of spices/floral, and some malts. Taste is mostly malts, spices arent as evident, some hoppy notes. Definitely one to pick up.

Bouteille brune de 650 ml. Bière très aromatique, le houblon est très présent. Robe dorée, très limpide. En bouche, le houblon est également en avant-scène, mais la bière demeure relativement peu amère. La base maltée légère en fait une bière très rafraichissante et facile à boire.

Bottle.Really flowery aroma. Beatiful color! Flavor is a bit fruity with some caramel and hops in it.

12/14/07 (floral aroma, this is a nice full-bodied brew. Clean palate, very distinctive flavor, I really enjoy it, but cannot quite pin down the flavor—maybe fruits, caramel and grass?)
