BMan1113VR (2755), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA Feb 13, 2009 Bottle thanks to ilovedarkbeer. Pours with a large, foamy, off-white head and a clear copper body underneath. Good lacing and retention. Aroma of honey, caramel and honey comb cereal with a hint of hop. Taste is cereal, huskiness and caramel. Lively bubbles and a dry mouthfeel. laguerita (111), Chicago, Illinois, USA Feb 4, 2009 bottle. had this one with some enchiladas, what a choice. great malty flavors with a good balance of hops. nice clean finish. nice medium body. a very very satisfying drink, indeed. revans (35), Salem, Ohio, USA Jan 31, 2009 Not a real fan of ambers but this is very good. Nice head and lace. Finishes clean and dry. Recommend to anyone just starting to try something other than the usual. jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA Jan 30, 2009 Reddish amber in color with a nice persistent off white head. Good smell that has a balance of hop and malt. Nice hop bite in the taste that fades into a light malty sweetness.
dmtroyer (409), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 14, 2009 12oz. Pours a good reddish copper with a decent head. Aroma is mostly grass and sweet malt. Body is surprisingly dry and hoppy, perhaps a bit soft on the palate. dkachur (2315), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA Jan 14, 2009 12 ounce bottle courtesy of dankman38. Pours a clear reddish brown color with a medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of sweet malts, grain, caramel and hops with a bit of a soapy note. Taste is toasted malts with peach-like fruit notes and grassy hops. Medium bodied. popephred (193), Plainfield, Illinois, USA Jan 4, 2009 Poured from the bottle into a double walled pint glass. Pour produced a dark amber body, topped with an off white head of foam, featuring decent lacing. Sweet, nutty aroma, kind of like pecan pie. Crisp mouthfeel, with a sour flavor, crossing over to dry bitterness at the end. Citrus notes on the palate, with a dry hops note lingering at the end. The beer goes down easily enough, though the bitterness lingers a little too long for my liking. bag (103), Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 4, 2009 From bottle... poured amber with small white head. It was sparkling too. Aroma was nutty with some hops. Somewhat sweet flavor with slightly bitter ending. Not great, but nice.
