This beer was had on tap at Brouwers Hopfest in Seattle, WA. This beer pours a clear coppery color with a creamy white pearlish head and somewhat good lacing. The aroms was fairly basic, but nonetheless appealing. Caramel, pine, wood, and floral citric notes were the dominant smells. The flavor struck me as using a particularly nice array of caramel to balance out the rather boring usage of hops. Bittering finish with an exponential type bitterness which grows with time. Definitely 70 plus IBU’s. Thick and full-bodied with an active carbonation level..prickling in respects. Clean and to the point, some citrus but almost all acetic qualities. Acceptable in most respects.

Draught @ Brouwer’s Cafe during HopFest 2005: Very coppery amber, semi-translucent, moderate white head, spotty lacing, very subtle carbonation.   Slightly earthy hop nose.   Hoppy start, slight citrus peel, very pale malts.   Fairly clean finish, bitterness lingers.   Moderate body and mouthfeel.   Somewhat earthy hop finish, with a very subtle citrus peel presense.   A bit above average in my opinion.
