Draft pint. Dark amber with a quickly dissipating white/tan head. Aroma is caramel, malt and light hops. Flavor is biscuit, malt and caramel with a very, very light citrus hop finish.

This was a lot hoppier than expected, and for the better. I expected something a little more on the malt side, but this one comes off almost as a pale ale. One could tell that high-quality ingredients were used. Overall good.

Bottle. Beautiful bronze color with a thick creamy head. Floral and lightly hoppy aroma. Light and crisp with a soft finish. Very easy drinking.

(Bottle). Hoppy aroma. Hazy orange-amber body, off-white head. Flavor is mildly bitter, somewhat watery. Hints of caramel. Otherwise, not much to distinguish it.

Pint draft served at "Refresher" something (St. Helena, CA). My wonderful trip to Cali! Poured a very nice dark amber hue with sizable tan-ish head. Yum. Aromas of caramel malts and light hoppy bitterness. Taste is similar, the maltiness takes center stage, caramel and biscuity notes, balanced well with a light citrusy hoppiness that leads to a mid-bitter finish. A very good amber and a beer I rather enjoyed as a session ale.. albeit, changing gears after a day of wine tasting and the Russian River sampler was difficult. Cheers!

Bottled@SBWF2008. Ambery brown colour, small white head. Aroma is caramel, some spices and yeast with some rather acidic notes too. Flavour is fruity, wooden and fruity hops along with some mild nuttyness.

The aroma is pleasant and malty, even sweet. The appearance is a nice brown, nearly rusty color, but not opaque. The hops are certainly part of the flavor, but not dominant. I don’t detect the caramel flavor previously mentioned, but rather a light citrus flavor. The texture is creamy and light. A good beer, but a bit overrated.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a nice small bubbled head, color is coppery brown...nose is mild hops, sweet malt....tastes mostly of sweet malt, mild hop bitterness, with an off taste to finish...mouth feel is adequate with some small bubble lift.
