Commercial Description:
This amazing unfiltered Autumn brew falls somewhere between Cricket Hill’s popular "American Ale" and their equally-popular "Hopnotic IPA" but takes on a taste all it’s own. A fantastic Ale that one must seek on the journey of microbrew obsession.

Light orange, nice head. Growler courtesy of jcwttrugger, 9th Richmond Gathering. Lightly citric hop aroma, faintly floral as well, decent toffee malt backbone, faint biscuit. Flavor matches. Clean, well balanced, very nicely done beer.

Pours a hazy orange. Nose is citrus hops and sweet caramel malts. Flavor is big bitter hops nicely balanced with sweet toasty malt. Some biscuity notes. Very nice ESB.

Growler shared by jcwattrugger at the 9th Richmond Gathering. Thanks! Pours a hazy amber color with a medium head. Decent head retention and lacing. Resiny hop aroma balanced fairly well with toffee notes. Taste is toffee, bready and toasted malts, leafy and resiny citrus hops and very faint fruity notes. Medium bodied with a lingering bitterness.

Thanks jcwattsrugger for the share. Pours amber with an off-white head. Nose is citrus, malt, and some bitterness. Taste is like a mix between an amber and an ESB with definitive qualities of both. Interesting beer.

It is a festivus for the rest of us thanks to jcwattsrugger. Pours deep clear gold with off white head. The aroma is sugar sweet malts, a modest level of spice, a touch of apple and then some grain. The taste is similar with spices, grains and sweet sugary malts starting out. About midway it gets a bit fruity with some sweet green apple. A new batch of this was tasting very nice. More lively, less apple, plenty of biscuit, roastiness and citrus hops. Really nice actually.

Bottle thanks to decaturstevo. Cool amber orange, two fingers of off white head. Spicy hops, malty aroma, somewhat flora. Toasty and bready. Taste is caramel, toasted malts and then spicy earthy hop bittering.

Deep gold with just a hint of red with foamy tight head and lace. Light caramel sweet malt aroma. Flavor of lightly sweet malt and a very nice finishing bitter. Medium bodied and a tad foamy. A very refreshing drinkable beer.
