Dec 19, 2008 On tap at Newrk and Wilmington brewery. Poured a light reddish amber with creamy white head. Smell is a mixture of fruit and a subtle hops. Taste brings out some more of the hops, but the sweet malt seems to dominate. Mouthfeel is rich and creamy. Finish is slightly dry.

Mar 31, 2008 On nitro in Lancaster. Poured copperish amber in color with a large white frothy head. Aroma of caramel and light hops. Taste was sweet with caramel malts, citrus and floral hops. A little sweet with a bit of a dry finish. Not bad.

Mar 26, 2008 On nitro at Wilmington. Clear orange/red with a nitro head. Very lite and fruity (apple) with a bunch of caramel malt. Nice floral hops. Nice sessionable flavor but way too thin.

Mar 25, 2007 Draft@ Montgomeryville. Pours a nice amber with a good lasting white head. I was plesently surprised the waiter described it as a Killinians style but this had much more. Aroma has a subtle hoppiness and just a freshness to it. Had a dry style to the pallette. Was light to medium body. A decent mouthfeel. I would have favored a stronger finish. Overall a tasty, decent brew.

Mar 20, 2007 Nitro @ Wilmington. Light reddish amber color with a subdued malty aroma. Taste was lighter, weaker, and not very exciting. Could have been alot better, especially not on nitro

Mar 14, 2007 On cask. WOW what a beer. Nice light brown color with amazing head and good lacing. Aroma was nutty malty and some hops in the background. Flavor was solid. Caramel sweetness that wasn’t over done. citrus hops in the aftertaste good way to end the beer for today.

Jun 11, 2006 Sorry to all the purists out there who don’t like their beers on nitro, but I love it. This was a beauty, nice deep amber color with some red hues, a very nice pillowy head that laced all the way down, not continuous, but not with rings.... a nice scene, though. The aroma was light caramel malts with some hops. The flavor did not disappoint, great balance of caramel and light bread with a touch of citrus, finishing with a nice bitterness typical of any amber ale. Very well done, full bodied mouthfeel for the style.

Apr 27, 2006 Draught sample, Wilmington DE location. Dark amber with a lasting dollop of head....nice woody, dry hoppy aroma with a touch of meaty nuts and light caramel, toasty malt....dry with a pinch of honey sweetness on the tongue, a bit sticky in the middle, toasted herbal character towards the finish....rather bland and ordinary overall, the word that sticks in my mind is "competent", which ain’t a compliment.
