Dec 11, 2009 Updated: Dec 12, 2009bottle from the cheeseman just arrived today! lively carbonation. Coincidentally, the girlfriend kylie and i had this beer right after a 2008 brandy barrel angels share. kylie loves carbonation and was complaining that the angels share has low carbonation (she has no knowledge of the 1. typical carbonation in english barley wines 2. high alcohol barrel aged beers have less than average carbonation. 3. the shit storm on the ratebeer forums about this beer. anyways, this one was a guzzler, spilled all over the table. 3/4 head. which was actually funny, since she got exactly what she fuckin asked for. serves her right. decent belgian pale ale. spicy. good.

Nov 13, 2009 22 oz bottle generously sent to me by Suttree. Pour is a hazy yellow golden, with a frothy loose 2 inch off white head. Some lacing left on the glass as the froth falls. Aroma of soft toasty malt and citrus floral hops, which are also soft and subdued. Taste is a nice balance between the malt and the hop of the nose, nice citrus brightness and ever so mild dry bitterness to the finish. A nice mineral earthiness is in the aftertaste. Palate is thin to medium clean and drinkable. Thanks Phil, this was a nice one.

Nov 12, 2009 On tap @ Asheville Pizza.
Light amber color, white head. Deep toast flavor with a hint of butter. Earthy with a bit of sweetness, butterscotch. Well balanced. Biscuit notes. Aroma of buttered popcorn. Never a pleasant scent in a beer...Unless we’re talkin traditional Ales. English Style Pales? Then I guess it’s OK. This is OK.
