May 15, 2006 Bottle courtesy of thaichile. Drak copper with nice off-white head. Aroma rather muted toasted grain, with faint caramel. Flavor again all toasted malt with some bittering hops towards the finish. Easy drink, just really nothing going on.

Apr 6, 2006 Hazy dark golden color with a thin covering of off-white head. Has an earthy sweet caramel malty aroma. Body starts with a touch of sweet toasty malt and a decent bittering earthy hoppy balance. Finishes lightly sticky and bittersweet. A drinkable, ok beer.

Apr 3, 2006 12 oz bottle, via Thaichile. Pours an orangish copper body under a one finger craggy off-white head. Aroma is mostly a general graininess with some toasted and a little biscuity malt. Fairly light in flavor with some biscuity malt under a moderately bitter hoppiness. Finish is short and moderately bitter. Lighter bodied and a little thin with active carbonation. An OK, but unexciting, "Amber".

Mar 22, 2006 Poured a hazy copper color with a small light beige head. Aroma of caramel, toffee, and fruit. Had phenolic notes. Sweet malty caramel flavor. Light bitter finish is semi-dry.

Mar 14, 2006 As everyone put it, a decent beer but nothing to write home about. Pours with little head, slightly lucid beer with an orange tint. The taste had nothing distinguishable neither did the aroma.

Feb 23, 2006 (02.22.06) 12 oz brown bottle received as gift in a trade with Thaichile. Yeast conditioned bottle only 75% full with about 3” head space. Slight gusher on pouring. Pours hazy amber with small white head. Soft carbonation. Juicy fruit esters on nose. Light-to-medium bodied amber ale that starts dry with wisp of malt sweetness and light malt flavor. Slight sharpness on mouth. Finishes dry with light nutty malt and bitterness fade. Slight metallic aftertaste. Thin, watery flavored, overly dry, and lacking complexity. No discernable oxidation products, despite large head space. Borderline drinkable. Maybe an old bottle?

Jan 21, 2006 (Bottle) Cloudy amber with off-white head. Rotten egg aroma. Some sloppy lacing. Dryish mouthfeel. Tastes fairly bitter up front, then some maltiness. Not really objectionable but pretty mediocre.

Dec 30, 2005 On tap at The Great Lost Bear in Portland, ME:
Interesting caramel maltiness coalesces with the peachy fruitiness...The hops’ soapiness detract from their citrusy fruitiness...Well-rounded, with a low but prickly carbonation, a simple, run-of-the-mill amber ale...
