May 5, 2008 Nice alternative to doing a super trendy pale ale. Smells bready with a little dark fruit. Taste nice and clean with a big hop finish

Nov 23, 2009 Medium amber, decent head. Roast and caramel aroma. Flavor matched. Roast notes really shown through without going into coffee territory. Very good balancing bitterness. Quite nice for a style I am picky about.
