Jul 14, 2009 Had this one bottled at the brewery in Milford, New York. Nice dark reddish brown color, a piney, hoppy nose, well balanced with a very strong grapefruit and rose flavor, awesome.

Apr 12, 2002 Very good pale ale. Friendly dry quality, smooth finish with no aftertaste. Very good ale to watch ballgame with. Where’s the Zweigles?

Jul 28, 2008 12oz - Rock solid from start to finish. Copper colored liquid under frotyhy tan head. Healthy carbonation of small bubbles. Nice bright citrus hops on nose. Palate is nice too, with malt fading to spice (nutmeg) and hops. A pleasant, well constructed, memorable New York brewed ale.

Apr 4, 2004 (Bottle) Pours a medium, wellowish head and an orange body. Nose of butter, malt and floral hops. Flavours of a sweet hop with a creamy, milky finish. Hardly tart. Very good. This could become a regular weekend beer if I get my way...

Nov 16, 2004 This is a beautiful beer to look at, tall head of dense foam, clear amber body.
Nice malt aroma perfumed with a hint of floral hops.
The flavor is sweet with a mild hop bitterness in the finish. Very drinkable and enjoyable.

Jul 11, 2005 (12 oz bottle: Obtained in trade with Eyedrinkale, thanks Mike!) Maybe my bottle of Old Slugger has been mislabeled? Somehow, a very flavorful and delicious pale ale has wound up in my glass. The flavor is sweet, quite malty, very fruity, moderately alcoholic, and has a very woody characteristic to it. Hops and bitterness are fairly mild in comparison. Medium bodied and reasonably substantial on the palate. The nose is also fruity and sweet, again with the hops taking a back seat. The color is orange/amber and somewhat hazy. The head foams up in a big way during the pour, but settles to about an inch thick layer for the duration of this tasting session. A thick, dense layer of foamy lacing is left on the glass. On the bottom of the bottle is a layer of sediment that is so dense and rock hard, it looks like it has been painted on. Between the very strong flavor, diminished hop profile, and the painted on sediment, I’m wondering if this bottle hasn’t seen quite a bit of "aging," which if so, it’s aged very nicely.
