The flavor has a thin maltiness along wiht a seemingly misplaced bitterness. The hop character is not really there except in that bitterness. Not really bad though. LilKem (1210), Marietta, Ohio, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Mar 28, 2006 Enjoyed this one on cask pulled from a beer enginee at the brewery in Brattleboro, VT. Pours to a murky, light amber color with a thick, and creamy white head, and a moderate amount of carbonation. The nose is very inviting on this beer with aromas of pale and sweet malt, paired with some light citrus hop notes. The palate is soft and fat on the tongue, with good pale, biscuit and sweet malt. This is paired with soft notes of estery, ripe fruit. This beer finishes with more biscuity malt flavor up front, then ends with some citrus bitterness that takes the cloying edge off this beer. Excellent pint of beer, a great one to relax with at the bar.
