Sep 2, 2009 Appears as hazy orange. Finger of rocky head. Lots of carbonation. Nice amber light comes through. Some spotty lace.
The aroma is a weak amber malt. Not much there, although not bad or anything like that. It’s just a bit underwhelming. Has a slight sweetness with a deep inhale.
Taste is a dry biscuity malt in a bitter amber/red way. Has a wet flowery flavor. The hops are sweet and mild. It’s a nice balance.
Feels wet and creamy. Thick like an English ale. Smoothens out as it warms up. Overall, not bad. Bitter but with a flowery sweet base. A very mild red ale.

Aug 27, 2009 Slightly hazy copper colored ale. Couldn’t pick up any hop aroma, just well balanced aroma of the malts. Very smooth malt flavor, barley noticeable bitterness (only at the end). Good level of carbonation, not too weak or strong.

Aug 17, 2009 Poured with a nice foamy head and attractive amber colour. The aroma and taste were equally nice, with the malt and also a tinge of the hops coming through. Goes well with a nice BBQ’d t-bone. Too bad the bottle is so small.

Aug 14, 2009 Good malty aroma that disappoints in the flavor. A caramelly maltiness hits for a second before being overrun by intense carbonation and an earthy bitter hop finish that kills it. As it warmed, the malt became stronger, unfortunately along with a distinct metallic tinge.

Aug 14, 2009 One of the first craft beers that I fell in love with. Just revisited it and it is still solid.
Some hops and malt on the nose. Pours amber with some head. Balanced carbonation with a smooth finish. Flavor is sweet and light. Some hops present. Nice beer for a hot day.
