Jan 4, 2006 Pours with a creamy medium white head on a golden body. Mild malty aroma with some hops filtering through. Strong allspice flavor initially. The hops kick in later. Good dry body with a decent amount of alcohol warming.

Dec 25, 2005 I thought this was an IPA... the label fooled me with the "Golden Ale" bit. Very hoppy, obviously. Orangish-golden color, plentiful head. Typical IPA aroma, characteristic taste. Nothing to write home about it, but a fairly good representative of its style.

Nov 9, 2005 Bottle… Hazy, yellow ale with a large, frothy, off-white head. Great retention. Lots of tea and butterscotch in the aroma. The flavor has great balance. Malty, but moderately bitter with notes of grapefruit rind, black tea and a whisper of sea salt. Full-bodied with lively carbonation. Finishes bitter, grassy and dry. Thanks go out to growler for sharing!

Oct 22, 2005 22 oz bottle. Pours golden yellow, small head, light lacing. I smell pine and hops, covering malt. Flavor is OK, a bit light. Finish has the typical hops. An OK IPA, but nothing to write home about. At least it is mildly engaging.

Sep 15, 2005 Bottle at MilkmanDan’s tasting on 9/10/05. Saffron, allspice aroma with some hops. Some particalia evident in the gold body. Off-white head. Nice lace. Allspice flavor. Has some similarities to Mendocino’s Whitehawk IPA. Unique flavor. Good.

Sep 11, 2005 MilkmanDan’s MN Welcome Night: Cloudy yellow with no head. Buttery aroma, but it still smelled kind of like a wet barnyard. Oddly spicy taste with a muddled grain body. Good hop finish.
