ross (1583), charlotte, North Carolina, USA Apr 12, 2008 Bottle. When I pay premium for one of these beers, I truly expect it to be something that is damn good, and something that I would love to get a hold of again. This beer did not really live up to my expectations despite it being a good style percent rating. Perhaps it was too cold at the start, because as it warmed it improved, but even then it was really nothing mind boggling. Pours out an orange color with not much of a head at all. The smell is fruity, with some alcohol noted as well as some fruity and floral hops. Taste was kind of bitter, with an aftertaste that reminded me of a typical pale lager. Not really pleasing aftertaste. After my palate was used to this beer, it was drinkable. But at first, I was disappointed. I dont think I would buy this one again...
