Jun 28, 2006 On tap at Dominion. Pours clear golden with a white head (not really amber). Nice grassy noble hop nose. Flavor is full bodied and well rounded; nice background of caramel and a touch of toffee complimented by grassy, herbal and lemon hop character. Moderately sweet, good bitterness in the finish. Medium bodied with a smooth texture and lively carbonation. Pretty enjoyable.

Jan 31, 2006 Draught only product found at the brewpub, and various outlets. Pours to a beautiful, bright, amber color with a tight white head that fades, and a good bit of carbonation. Nose strikes a good balance of toasty and nutty malt aroma with some herbal hop aromatics. The palate is firm with good pale, toasty, and nutty malt flavor. Body is round and smooth. Fiishes with more good malt character up front, then ends with mild herbal hop bitterness to balance. Very soid, tasty, drinkable lager.

May 2, 2004 On tap at brewery: Medium orange gold clear with a small very short lasting head. Very faint light sweetish malt and some hop aroma. Medium thin body. Medium sweetness malty, someting spicey and woody dusty hops flavours. Maybe it was the fish and chips being served to patrons at the time but I could swear there was a hint of fishy saltiness there as well.

Jan 23, 2004 Clear amber lager with a small, fizzy, white head. Malty and hoppy nose. Straw, butterscotch and floral notes.
Decently balanced. A touch on the bitter side from start to finish. Light-bodied with a watery mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Short, bitter finish. Overall, a well-hopped beer with a poor malt profile. Not much to it, really.

Jan 8, 2004 On tap at the Brew Pub in Ashburn. Amber color. Not much of a head. Faint aroma. Malt maybe but I can't tell. Smooth, citrusy, kind of bitter. But nothing to write home about. Overall OK.

Oct 14, 2003 Pale clear amber. Very little nose what there is all malt. Neutral malt and some hop bitterness. Smooth medium body. Not too much else to say about this one.
