12 oz bottle. Reddish-orange, massive gouts of foam. Big berry-peach aroma, a little sourness. In the body...uh-oh, this might be an infected bottle. Fairly sweet but with an underlying sourness throughout, decent malt, little hops. It’s interesting, but not working on the whole.

on tap-pours a thin off white head and copper color. Aroma is faint sweet. Taste is medium malt, sweet, hops bite. OK carbonation.

Sampled at the brewpub; copper colored and still, this is a well-balanaced flavorless brew. Lightly bittered maybe, but not much here overall. Among the shallowest beers I tried here. (#2804, 4/21/2007)

Draught at the brewpub.Clear copper color without much head. Subtle spicy nose. Dry and crisp with mild hop bitterness. Some dried tart cherries and toffee.
