Bottle from IrishBoy. What a suprise this beer was. I never heard of this brewery before, and I’m impressed. Breesia says it’s a goldish color. Smells like honey. Bready. Nice malt aroma a grood amount of hops as well. wonderful refreshing citrus finish.

Thanks to IrishBoy. This was pretty darn good. Pours a medium golden with a fair sized head. Aroma was yeast and malts with a tad amount of hops. Flavor was very smooth. A little citrus and just a little sour (in a good way). A nice sharp refreshing brew.

Bottle... Cloudy light golden ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. The nose is earthy and full of citrusy, piney hops. Slightly oxidized. Great balance, flavor wise. A whisper of pungency from the oxidation/infection; otherwise, a nice marriage of mild to moderate biscuity malt and a modestly bitter, crisp hop bite. Light to medium-bodied and fizzy. Short, crisp, fairly clean finish. Kudos to Monger for providing this one!

Thanks to IrishBoy for this one. Slightly hazy golden body with a fairly large head, blah lacing. Aroma is grass, light floral and fruits. Some bready sweetness. Simple and easy, but well done.

Bottle from Richard (irishboy) Thanks! Pours out a golden color with a white head. Smell is malty, sweet, fruity, and a tad hoppy. Taste is smooth, rich, filling, easy to drink, but the sweetness catches up to this one. An interesting beer, drinks very smooth, could be a session beer.

Bottle poured a clear golden amber with a large lasting off white head. Aromas of yeast, biscuits, fruitiness and some toffee. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of citrus, biscuits, a bit of wood and some fruitiness with a crisp lingering bitter finish.

Received as a bonus from <!-- i -->IrishBoy<!-- /i -->. Pours a hazy orange copper with a small off white head. Aroma of woody hops, toffee malts, some butterscotch. Taste is much the same minus the butterscotch, and has a little nuttiness and a biscuity finish. Creamy mouthfeel, light-mod carbonation. A well made beer.

<!-- b -->Bottle (12oz)<!-- /b -->. <!-- i -->via trade with IrishBoy<!-- /i -->. Hazy deep orange-gold with a decent off-white foamy lasting head. Sweet juicy, slightly spicy malt, light perfumy hops; fruity. Fruity taste but quite a bit of floral/herbal hop bitterness - nice linger, sweetish fruity aftertaste. Finishes a little watery, nice and sharp mouthfeel - crisp. English Pale? Okay by me, whatever, I just enjoyed it on a hot day - refreshing.
