| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 19, 2007 A dry and crisp citrus hop aroma. Not overly powerful though. Some roasty malt is evident as well. A dark reddish amber with a thin tan head. Flavor is a mild roasty toffee flavor with pleasant mild citrus hops. A little grapefruit peaks through in the flavor. Finishes dry. A suprising thirst quencher and a nice session beer.
