Mar 29, 2006 Tap @ Tempe location. Sweet malty fruity aroma. Body dark red with light tan head. Good lacing present. Medium fruity and syurpy body makeup for the flavor. Some hop bitternes present also. Medium dry finish on the palate.

Mar 26, 2006 On Tap: A very stiff small bubbly offwhite head sat atop a deep reddish-brown mahogany colored beer with some nice lacing. The aromas were of citrus, malts, pine, lemon. The flavor was light with some hops and very smooth sweet mouthfeel. Almost a fruity and maple syrup taste. I assumed it was an amber ale or an irish ale, kind of suprised to see an ale categorization it tasted a little like and ESB to me.

Jul 18, 2003 Amber color. Lovely, rich, complex, mostly hoppy aroma with malts balancing it out. Wonderful mildly bitter hoppy flavor with sugars in it. Just lovely. Makes you pay attention. It's not passive (thoug it's not as aggressive as something, say, from Stone (and I mean that with ALL due respect to that wonderful brewery!)). Very good.

Feb 24, 2003 Coppery red with medium off-white head. Sweet malty aroma. Taste is fairly smooth, very accessible, but with decent maltiness. Well-balanced, with good body and a touch of bitterness in the swallow.
