12oz. bottle. Strong head atop a slightly hazy copper body. Wonderful lacing on this pour. Big burst of malts and hops right up front, with strong grass and citrus notes. Very smooth on the back end. Always nice to sample this in spring.

I always look forward to seeing this seasonal on tap. Very balanced. Great aroma and hop profile. A little unfocused on the mid-palate. Leaves you wanting a little more body. All in all and great red ale!

Aug 10, 2008 355 ml bottle. Reddish amber body with a creamy, light beige head. Aroma is fruity, grapefruit and berries with a little hint of caramel. Flavor is balanced sweet and bitter with fruit. Harmonic, balanced, with a sharp bitterness. Really nice.

Jul 31, 2008 bottle in trade from ditmier. Thanks!
Pours light reddish amber with a short lived beige head. Smell is caramel red malt with a lightly fruity hop and yeast smell too. Taste is lightly musty and yeasty and doughy. Some light hops and caramel with a light lingering bitterness in the finish. Could use more malt to balance and give more body, I think.

Jul 28, 2008 Found this one bottled at the Liquor Depot in Rock Springs, Wyoming. Hazy, orange reddish pour with floaties, a foamy, off white head, toffee and candy apple nose, chocolate malt, nice and malty, mild but very quaffable.
