Sep 7, 2008 Bottle, June 2008. This beer pours amber with a great, white head. I can smell aromas of caramel, and some floral scents through the hops. Flavour starts with caramel, slightly sweet, with biscuit and a bitter finish.

Sep 6, 2008 from log at friend’s party. Pours rather pale, orange in color with medium cream white head. Aroma of citrus, hops. Flavor is mellow caramel sweet, yet well balanced with citrus flavors of lemon, tangerine, and orange. Finish lingers, and is softly bitter from the hops. Overall, a well-balanced, if not a bit tame, brew. Great for hot summer days.

Aug 28, 2008 Bottle as Pennant Ale ’55 from Vintage Cellar. Poured a slightly hazy amber with a minimal white head. Aromas of dust, lightly roasted caramel and some lightly spicy hop. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is lightly roasted malt, "biscuity" seems appropriate, and a very light bitter. Fairly tasty, but not all that exciting.
