May 31, 2009 11.2oz bottle from a Heather Ale mix sampler box. An interesting beer and I think the only one with heather in it that I’ve ever tasted. Poured light copper. Tastes of pine, citrus, and slight spiciness. Maybe a little on the thin side.

May 18, 2009 11.2 fl oz royal. Best before Oct 2007 notched on the label. Pour is hazed orange golden with a bunch of floaties, and a one inch light tan head. Aroma of malty, roasty earthiness - the moss peat as expected. Nice herbal floral notes. Really soft and inviting nose. Taste is the musty, earthy, peaty, slightly sweet floral of the nose. There is also a bit of butterscotch citrus sweetness present. Really layered flavors, nicely integrated. Palate is medium, drying, yet coats the mouth pleasantly. This really attacked the palate despite the lower abv. Interesting and enjoyable beer. I need to grab a fresher bottle and see what the age did to this.

May 13, 2009 Bottle. Pours a yellowish color with a smaller white head. Aroma was some sweet aromas, malts, and pines. Flavor was bitter, weird and not as good as I thought it would be. Medium body.

May 12, 2009 Pours golden color with white head that quickly disappears. Very floral aroma. Flavor is herbal, flowery and spicy. I’m getting some cinnamon and citrus also. Medium body with lively carbonation. I enjoyed this one.

May 9, 2009 Light copper brown beer with quite big blond head. Aroma is quite great, balanced with something exotic, "sweet pine needles", bitterness and some cinnamon? Flavour is more simple than aroma, but still quite similar: dry, pine needles and old-fashioned style. Nice and balanced to drink. Different beer with interesting "exotic", definitety worth to dry.

May 9, 2009 Pours with a small white head good lacing light in color. Seems very slight on the hops thin and light on the palate even with this it does come through with lots of flavor, a good beer.

May 8, 2009 Pours goldish amber with white head. Aromas of flowers and hops. Floral flavors with a slight maltiness. Very different and interesting beer. Must try.

May 8, 2009 12 oz bottle. Caramelized sugar and malty with hefty aroma of cardamom and coriander like spices. Clear orange golden with very small fine white head. Flavor follows the aroma, spicy minty and floral but not fruity at all. Medium body with a dry very spicy residual on the tongue. Really different and I think pretty tasty.
