Not a bad brew, and it’s kosher for passover. L’chaim. Pours dark amber, little head. Malty and hoppy. Tinny aftertaste, but still a nice little beer.

Bottle Poured dark anber with good thick head and lacing. Aroma is malt and caramel. Flavor is malt, light hops and a slight metalic finish. Not bad.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Amber, slightly hazy with a nice, creamy head. The different hops make this an excessively bitter hebrew. Apart from the hoppiness I believe this is lacking in character.

Bottle. Pours a nice hazy dark tan with smallish head, but the head laces decently. Nose is not like an ale.... more like a lager. The aroma reminds me of Yuengling, but with much more character. Some toffee and some caramel in the nose. This one tastes like a more heavily malted lager as well, with very little hop taste, but some decent hop bitterness and also a nice thirst quenching quality. I think this is a very decent beer, but not really fitting the American Ale style as far as I’m concerned.

Medium dark amber color,small white head that faded fast leaving just a hint of lace behind.The aroma was malty and some what metallic,with a light caramel and maybe a bit of hops in there as well.The flavor was certainly better then the aroma.Malty taste with a light caramel flavor,kind of bitter in the beginning and mellowing slightly towards the end with a decent but light hop presence.Not bad but i think they could do a little better in some ways.It’s worth a try atleast and it might even grow on a person after a few more.

This bottled brew poured a medium sized head of light brown colored mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a uncarbonated transparent light brown colored body. The aroma was mildly malty and the mouthe feel tingly with a lingering malt hop finish. The flavor contained notes of malts hops and mild caramel.

Pours a light brown with a small frothy head. Smells terrific! Can definately smell the great quality hops in here. Super smooth, goes down a little bitter, with a bite on the back. Almost pils-like... I like this one a lot, perhaps I should get a fresher bottle next time. Still good though.

Real light nut and caramel aroma. Body is brown with a thin cream head. Hop profile is a bit to big for the style and seems out of place.
