Sep 30, 2006 Nice clean pour, malty with a nice smooth finish - nicely hopped. Depending on the batch, can have a bit of a sour aftertaste

Sep 29, 2006 This ale is an amber color with a sweet, hoppy aroma. It has a creamy, bitter yet slightly sweet flavor with a hint of fresh oregano.

Sep 28, 2006 Poured a muddy red-orange with almost no head, interesting from the bottle. Very slight earthy aroma. Bit on the watery side. Light grassy hoppiness with a sweet, citric bite, but really not much no it, unfortunately.

Sep 13, 2006 Draft at the Saloon, Washington, D.C. Poured amber, with a nice, off-white head. Malty nose and flavor with a nice hoppy finish. A nice tasting, refreshing ale.

Sep 12, 2006 Bottled as Pennant Ale 55. Slightly hazy, orange-brown ale with a small off-white head. Fruits, caramel, yeast-notes and apples in the aroma. The flavor has fruityness, caramel, some hops and spicyness. Medium body and a fruity and hoppy finish. A really nice beer, hoppy and fruity, but it doesn’t stand out from the crowd. (060819)

Sep 7, 2006 Botle. Dark amber pour. No head. Aroma malty, and very faint. Flavor was different, Orange, malt, and flower hints, with some spice, I can’t place. Ever so slight hop notes. Soapy (?) in the finish. Light to medium bodied. Crisp mouthfeel, average overall.

Sep 7, 2006 Bottle. Just slightly hazy in appearance, dark amber orange in color. The nose is a little hard for me to figure out, but it’s not really complex at all. Has some light brown sugar and cracker malt scents, along with some orange and mango fruit scents, but overall it’s not very appealing. Resembles an oxidized or infected old ale, but it’s clear to me that there is no actual infection. Crisp and flavorless up front, more of the same over the middle, with some spoiled orange and tin flavors appearing. Finish is wet, flavorless, plain. Not a bad beer, but really lacking character.
