Bottled. Clear ruby, small head. Roasty, raisiny grapefruit aroma. Sweet and very hoppy with clean, hard mouthfeel and notes of lychee. Hard, bitter finish. Simplistic, but fairly pleasant.

Dark copper. Aroma of toffee, brown sugar and earthy malts. Fairly light for its size. Like a big “amber ale” – caramel, toffee and earth. Fruity notes (kiwi, peach). Sweetish earthy finish. Good balance.

(Bottle, best by 4/25/05) Quite small tan head atop a clear nut brown body. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, nutty, some plum, tobacco, light metallic. Taste is medium sweet, tobacco, some caramel, light chocolate, dark fruit. Medium body, alcohol well hidden, light acidity, quite drinkable.

Pleasing but never overpowering C-hop mists easing into an appeasing creamy malt body...Effectual grapefruit and resinous hops mutually join the perpetual dry berries and chocolate for a beautiful balance...Classy tobacco and sassy peaches underneath...Just a bit more of everything and you'd get a nice, typical American barley wine...

Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of tea, roasted malt. Taste is roasty with some spicy elements.

Nice color, a deep amber/copper with a frothy beige head that subsides to a soap scum look a bit too quickly. Good lacing. The aroma is herbal hops over caramel and bitter nuts. The flavor is carameland toffee almost overpowered by the herb and spice bitterness. Finishes on a lingering, earthy note. Nice warmer.

Bottle 12oz. Dark brown color with huge light brown head. Complex aroma of malt, hops and spices. Medium to full body with smooth texture. Full flavor with hoppy bitter finish. First brew from this brewery and it was very good.
