Nov 4, 2007 Sampled at the brewery. Slight haze with orange/amber color. Nice hop presence on nose with notes of citrus and grass. Maltiness is present in the middle and finishes a bit sweet. An easy drinking ESB.

Cloudy amber color with a nice frothy head. Subtle bitterness with sweet malt to smooth it over at the end. Pretty good brew.

Jul 30, 2007 tap @ in tempe in a monsoon...nice orange golden color. sweet malts are the only things i could pull from the aroma (lots of fans and a thunderstorm). flavor is sweet malt/toffee with a nice grapefruit citrus balance. great session beer for waiting out the rain!! as with the kiltlifter, i’m sure this will be more pronounced from a bottle.

Jun 16, 2007 For a beer that puts itself into a bitter category, it is pretty smooth. The bars shouldn’t serve it so damn cold but I have adjusted my ratings as if it were served at the correct temperature. Carmel and toffee finish doesn’t overpower but doesn’t last long either. Great color and weight. A great beer for sitting at the bar with friends. You could drink it all day long. Just make sure you have a comfortable landing spot, these will catch up to you.
