May 15, 2009 deep amber pour with a nice size beige head. nose is lightly hopped with bitter malts and caramel coming through. quite full on the palate with a flavor of citrusy hops that fade to caramel and a smooth hop finish.

Aug 16, 2009 Bottle. Dark amber in color with a decent beige colored head. Mostly clear. The smell is some hops, caramel, malts, floral, and a touch of roast. Ok. The taste is the same as the smell.

Apr 11, 2003 This i more akin to an apa than an amber. Amber bodied with fairly thick head of a nice cream-foam consistency> Aromatic hop profusion is a delightful surprise. The flavor was a more diffuse hoppiness with a twinge of malt. Superb balance and nice, sweet flavor. Again, I hesitate to label this an amber, but if it is, it is a top fiver.

Jun 5, 2004 bottle-thanks to Mromero548 for bringing this one down from CO. Burgandy red appearance with minimal white head. citrus hops and slight toasty malts, but mostly sweet hops on the aroma. Some green apple notes on the aroma as well. toasty palate with a hoppy finish. the combination of Amarillo and Tettnag is pretty interesting to taste on this one. Definately pretty complex flavors due to the unique use of these hops. Nice long finish. definately one i will revisit!

Jun 5, 2004 Pours reddish orange with a full beige head. Malty and hoppy aroma with some fruitiness. Flavor is also fruity, mildy hoppy and some citrus. A clean, fresh tatsting beer that goes down very well.

Jul 9, 2007 Translucent and shiny copper in color with a bubbles-feeding-head mentality. Bubbles popping at the crest create an icy grey surface. Aroma speaks to succulent, sugary hops. Candi sugar is crusted on ruby red grapefruit, joining forces with buttered almonds, amaretto toffee and a hint of blood oranges to all form a rather well composed nose. Flavor swings in with brandy stewed nuts, diluted with holy water, and then get aided with a sprig of spruce. Buttery toffee is caught off the eastern seaboard and held in a perpetual standoff. Amicable bitterness hums dryly on the rooftop while gummy, cherry juice and caramel sap slide off of seasoned spruce needles. The medium body never changes directions, for better or worse. Oxidized pistachios ring with a touch of the tin nut can liner and a numbed, caramel amaretto toffee character perseveres until the slightly bitter end.

Jul 1, 2008 Amber colored, moderate head, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is grapefruit and citrus, crystal malt backing, some earth. Medium bodied, pretty nice for an amber.

Dec 5, 2008 orange red with a fluffy tan white head. leafy wet penny nose. tastes like licking a wet brick. for some reason, this is a good taste. there is something wrong with me and i know it. nic honey sweetness in the finish is good. nothing remarkable but a decent unobtrusive drinker. the 6 pack di not go to waste.
