Dec 15, 2003 This is my first venture into a heather ale. A nice experience for sure. Appearance is cloudy copper color with a creamy off white head and some lacing. Aroman is interesting. Spicy, flowery and nice for sure. Flavor is also spicy, cinnemon flavor with a sweet initial taste rapidly giving way to an acidic (not unplesant) bitterness. A good beer

Apr 12, 2004 Thin white head. Light brown, see through. Malty nose, slightly sweet. Flavor is interesting. Has bitterness, but it is more like the kind of bitterness you get from exotic cabbage. Flavor is smooth and straw-like, with a nice finish. Interesting beer.

Apr 26, 2004 Slightly hazed, orange hue. Small sticky off white head. Mealy, malt nose. I really enjoy this heather brew. Slight smokiness, great herbal flavor, winey, and a very pleasant sweetness that rounds this out. I spose some could see it as 1 dimensional, but I feel it rocks.

Sep 25, 2004 Amber body, no head. Heather gives a nice floral kick. Palate proposes tart spicy banana bread and honey hints. Very refreshing, perfect medium effervescence. Light-medium body. Addictive spices somehow manages to provide balance to the mostly sweet flavor profile. Quaffable. I wouldn’t see this type of beer as any potential world-beater, but in its genre, it’s very satisfying if not quite a flavor festival. Thanks Josh!

Apr 11, 2004 I thought this ws a rather interesting brew and I give it props for using a non-hops source of bittering. The flavor is predominantly malt, it has a straw-like smell, like a summer hayfield. A hint of black pepper taste , I assume from the heather. Bitterness barely percievable, in that respect similar to scottish hopped beers. Due to lack of hops, you won't be left drowsy and "becoming one with the couch". It was good and inspiring from a homebrewer's perspective

Nov 3, 2006 Very interesting, well-crafted ale. Very distinct, flowery and spicy at the same time. Little honey flavor, finishes well

Nov 13, 2004 Nice beer with a very original taste. It has a warm amber color with a normal medium head. In the nose you have intens floral aroma’s with a fresh lemongrass like accent. The taste is smooth and a little oily. In the mouth you have apple like hints and white wine accents. In the afthertaste there is a nice complex touch of flowers and fresh herbs.
