Caramel malt aroma. Appearance is coppery amber. Flavor is sweet caramel. Very smooth and velvetty. Medium bodied. A very nice amber ale.

Oct 6, 2008 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!

Sep 30, 2008 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.

Sep 28, 2008 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.
