Dec 15, 2008 12oz bottle. Provided by mwelsh13. Golden onion pour with a little head. Fresh grain aroma with just a bit of alcohol. A solid flavor profile. Not overly sweet like some of these brews can get. Fresh grain and hay flavors with a well balanced malt sweetness combined with a does of earthy ops. Medium body and semi-dry finish rounds out the initial sticky mouth feel. A good effort.

Dec 10, 2008 Bottle. Pours a a bright amber golden in color with a fairly sizeable pure white head. It has a some floral notes, some citrusy, bright, hoppy notes, and a note of almost like a cross between tobacco and sadle leather. This beer is as described, well rounded. It has a rich, full mouthfeel. Its flavor ranges from sweet and malty to tangy, yet finishes smooth and creamy.

Nov 28, 2008 Clear golden amber with a few fingers of healthy-looking head and lacing. Floral, bright hoppy aroma. Herbal too. Soft mouthfeel, gentle and quaffable. Sweeter than expected, floral throughout with an off-dry finish. Strength is apparent, feels wintry.

Nov 20, 2008 12 oz bottle. Strong and smooth, dark amber with lite white head, very hoppy and smooth to drink. While I generally like the darker brews better, I tried their Peg Leg stout, and this brew seemed to impress me more. Darn near an IPA, but without the overriding bitterness. Good brew.

Nov 20, 2008 I really enjoyed this beer. Bought it simply because of the bottle, the name, and the fact that I hadn’t had it before; glad I did.
It pours a huge white head that lasts til the last sip. Dark ginger ale in color/caramel. Hints of hops and citrus in the nose.
Smooth buttery mouthfeel, really nice. Good lacing with a complex finish. Sweet at first, then the bitter hops take over before the strong alcohol (7%) ends it.
Really, a nice beer.

Nov 19, 2008 Rich golden colour with a thin head. Herbal hop nose with pear-like notes. Fairly rich hop with some cloying sweet malts. Finishes sweeter than I’d prefer and seems to really lack polish.

Nov 1, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of leafy hops, earthy malt, not terribly interesting. Flavor has the same components and adds in nuttiness, a sweet edge to the earthy malt, semi-rich, nice interplay between the hops, earth, and sweetness. Body could be fuller. Pretty good.

Oct 31, 2008 Bottle, best by 01/2009. Pours a clear deep orange with a small white head. Aroma of skunk, wheat malt, and sweet fruit. Flavor is pretty similar: stale wheat malt, slight skunk, and light sweetness. Not a great beer, but quite drinkable and enjoyable. Nice imperial pilsener and definitely try to get it as fresh as you can!
