Dec 12, 2007 on tap. hazy gold color, lots of hop aroma, german hops? well balanced malt and a nice oak flavor. awesome lacing in glass, unique beer. a little undercarbonated, but it’s a small complaint.

Aug 14, 2008 By far my favorite of the sampler. I agree with can8ianben that they need to remove their descriptor of "pale ale" from the menu, this is far from an american pale ale! Nose was extremely floral, spicy, yeasty and fruity. Body followed suit with the bit of banana one often comes to expect, but a surprisingly spritz of hops on the dry finish. Mouthfeel is almost perfect with good weight from the ingredients but good carbonation to keep it alive. Well done!

Dec 15, 2008 A very nice and well balanced, clean and refreshing ale. Good hop bitterness upfront with a dry, almost spritzy mouthfeel.

Dec 1, 2007 From the tap poured a hazy amber color with a fair amount of head. Flavor of malt and hops finishes with a good aftertaste.

Dec 18, 2007 This one is only Golden in Color - I think its actually an American Pale ale per the description listed on the beer board at Dock street. An oaked APA? Its pretty nice if you ask me. Aroma is very citrusy with some bready malts and some light oak detectable. Flavor is very citrusy and acidic (in a good way) and just assertive enough to go with most pub fare. Nice mouthfeel. I want to know more about this one!

Mar 2, 2008 On draft. Pours a hazy golden honey with a medium white head. Aroma of weak floral hops, honey and citrus. Taste of floral hops with a honey presence and a hint of citrus. Nice.

Aug 14, 2008 They have to change the name of this... I instantly thought "oh great, another sucky pale lager", but was plesantly surprised to find a complex, almost belgian style beer. Lovely mouthfeel, interesting hop additions, and smooth drinkability. I was sad my glass was empty!

Nov 30, 2007 on tap-pours an off white head that laces and hazy yellow color. Aroma is nice sweet hops-cascade (and Amarillo / Hallertau?), faint malt. Taste is nicely balanced hops and medium malt, bitter finish. OK/mild carbonation.
