It is even better if you are lucky enough to find it on tap. I really can not say enough about anderson valley brewing company, they make some of the best beers in the world. As a homebrewer , this is the kind of beer I strive to make. Just feels really great in the mouth, excellent CLEAN taste. You can feel the love in this beer. Loads of flavor and none of them bad. malty (12), North Carolina, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 12, 2005 12 oz. bottle. Another favorite from Anderson Valley. Deep amber with an off white head. Malty palate, subltle hop flavoring and aroma. An excellent example of the style, and very drinkable. Since it’s not overpowering in its own right, it serves well with a meal.

Smells citrusy, sweet, malty.Tastes much like it smells with a slightly nutty taste. After trying Fat Tire last night, I can see the difference. This beer tastes so much better.
