Commercial Description:
A very distinctive pale ale, this beer is 100% home-grown in the Western North Carolina mountains. A sweet front end belies the fresh English hops for a very earthy aroma & flavor. Just like Asheville, it plants a seed in your soul that stays with you for life.

Serving: Draft. Appearance: Pale orange with a foamy, white head. Good head retention and great lacing. Aroma: Light floral nose with biscuit notes. Very mild. Taste: Caramel malt, a hint of wood, butter, and a nice bitter balance. Palate: Medium-low carbonation with a medium mouthfeel and a medium, bitter finish. Overall: A pretty good brew with some nice English character. Very sessionable. Rebuy: Yes.

Hazy amber-gold with big, foamy beige head / Delicate dry hop and malt nose / Light body, delicate, with good balance / Fresh, elegant yet earthy flavors of dry hops and malt, with light citrus notes / Very nice.

on tap-pours an off white head that laces and gold color. Aroma is mild sweet medium malt, sweet citrus. Taste is citrus rinds-orange/grapefruit hops, secondary light/medium malt. Some detractors.

Bomber brought back from NC trip. Pours a copper orange mostly clear with an ok head. Aroma is DMS with corn and green veges, light crackery caramel and toffee notes with slight stale hops- green, slight orange citrus. Flavor is more bland crackery malts, stale old hops- earth, toffee, leather and stale. Finish is lightly bittter and pretty weak. Meh.
