Jul 27, 2009 Pours copper with gold edges and weak tan head. The aroma has sweet malts and earthiness to go along with citrus and dark fruity esters. The taste has a pleasing balance of malty goodness, citrus hops, spicy hops, earthiness and dark fruity esters. A thin layer of molasses surfaces into the finish. The flavor isn’t seamless but tasty leaving lingering hop bitterness into the after taste.

Jul 17, 2009 From bottle: rich bread and molasses aroma, tastes like a hopped-up scottish ale or almost a lean English barleywine.

Jun 29, 2009 A red copper color with a fading tan head. Just a tiny amount of carbonation rising to the top. A floral lemon and grassy aroma that closes out with a butterscotch malt. The aroma of this is flip flopped. Usually its malty then hoppy - this is opposite. The taste of this ale mirrors the aroma style. A spring hops flavor combined with tart lemon jump out in front of a well bodied malt. The palate is easy drinking and bubbly. I can just taste the freshness, reminding me of a Sierra Nevada. An interesting taste and a feather in the cap of this North Carolina brewer.

Jun 20, 2009 Pours golden reddish amber with minimal head. I get lots of malt on the nose as well as subtle hops along with slight candied fruit smells. Medium bodied. Malt upfront on your palate along with bread and a hint ever so slight of hops in there as well. Not much lacing on the glass either.

Jun 15, 2009 This is one of the first craft beers I tried, and is still a favorite. Goes great with pizza and burgers. Has a nice amount of hops, without getting into IPA territory.

Jun 12, 2009 Ideal copper/amber color, clear and inviting. Hmm, little oxidized malt here, probably an old bottle. Meh, it falls flat and a bit broken. Only caramel malt. If I ever get another bottle I’ll rerate it.
