Dec 6, 2008 Hazy golden, medium white head. Earthy potatoe aroma with strong piney and apricot hops. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Dry with a frim but never overwhelming bitterness. The best Left Hand brew for me this far.

Nov 30, 2008 Updated: Mar 10, 2009(Bottle) Pours hazy orange with a small white head. The flavour is medium hoppy and medium malty with tones of orangey/grapefruity citrus, light sweet toast, white bread and cookies. The spicy rye, peppery alcohol and piney hops makes a good, aromatic blend. Some “clean” yeast is also present. Undertones of honey, lychee, apricot/peach, dry pineapples, wood and flowers. Pleasant and juicy hop oils in the nose and taste (not too high alpha). Maybe a blend of American and English 4-7 % alpha hops (Cascade, Goldings and/or Crystal?) with just a sting of more resiny and bitter high alpha hops (Columbus or Warrior) in the background. The flavour is medium hoppy and near medium malty with piney, floral, rye spicy, orangey citric, dry honey-ish, wood resiny, toast and light caramel tones. The mouthfeel is round, juicy and light sticky with a soft carbonation. Light to medium sweet and medium to heavily bitter. Lingering sweet malt, only the alcohol dries out the finish. Some alcohol warmth is also notable. Medium bodied. Clean. I like.
