 Perm (140), Tryon, North Carolina, USA
Sep 25, 2008 Sampled at Brewgrass ’08
Appearance: Copper-color. "Looks the way beer should look."
Aroma: A perfect blend of hops and malt, it could be a bit more aromatic for my likes.
Taste: I’m not sure if this is close-on stylistically, but I hope it is! I dig this beer. A harmonious blend of malt and hops, not too sweet at all. There’s a nice hop follow-through at the end.
Palate: Perfectly dry and fizzy.
Overall: A wonderful session ale.
Serving type: on-tap

Sep 23, 2008 Sample, Brewgrass 2008. Bright clear amber pour. Overall, bready was the key taste/smell from this beer. Fresh sourdough bread! Yum. Malty sweet caramel and toffee as well and a bit of hops, but not much. I’ve not had many, but I do enjoy this style.

Aug 9, 2008 Draft @ Barley’s Asheville. Pours a clear amber color with a small off white head. The aroma is moderately sweet bread, light spice, caramel, and some mild floral hoppiness. The flavor is very heavily bready with some caramel and light spice to round things out. There is a touch of bitterness throughout. Smooth, medium bodied. Not a style I have had alot of experience with, but it was decent.

Jul 29, 2008 Fairly amber pour with a cream colored head. A little more sweet and malty than I would like. Slight bitterness, could have used a little more. Finishes alright and clean. Something is missing/not quite right. I think they kind of missed the boat on this one as well as some of their other light ales.
