Lofts of butter on the nose and flavor. Clean and lightly fruity with a sweet finish. I rather enjoyed the aftertaste, but not much else.

Sampled at the 2008 Knoxville Brewers’ Jam. Golden in the glass with a creamy white head that leaves good lace behind. Orange peel hop aroma. The flavor finds a nice hoppy citrus. Medium body, crisp, and medium bitter throughout. Very decent.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this one. Light and crisp, with a nice snappy hop bite. Nothing fancy, but a pretty good session beer. Sampled at 2008 Knoxville Brewer’s Jam.

Brewer’s Jam. Pours golden with a white head. Wow. I was really surprised to find distinct American hop character in the aroma. It’s not overwhelming by any stretch of the imagination, but a definite profile of lemon, grass, grapefruit, and herbal stank is present. The mouthfeel is quite light which compliments the zesty citrusy flavor. Hints of lemon, wood, and grapefruit are noted along with the crisp body. I was really impressed with this offering. Asheville Brewing claims this is a lager, though I couldn’t personally identify it as such. This is underrated.

Hazy yellow pour. Grainy aroma. with a similar flavor profile. Light floral hops and citrus zest.
