Mar 20, 2005 Nice appearance — reddish gold with a small white head. But very little impression made by the beer ... average mouth, lightly hopped, no real sense of malt or floral hops or complexity of any kind.

Mar 19, 2005 Cool bottle. Poured a murky copper with almost no head. Clover aroma and flavor. Nice bitter aftertaste and pleasant mouth feel. Middle of the road all the way around.

Mar 4, 2005 Fruity Californian amber ale. Poured the colour of redwood with a decent head. The nose has lots of fruit, with traces of caramel and some winey notes. Big fruity hop flavours at the front of the mouth, fading to a gentle dry finish. Firm-bodied. Some lingering malt. Fair drinking but not particularly distinctive. (Bottle)

Feb 21, 2005 Gold w. no head (maybe my glass wasn’t clean?) Fruity nose w. some sweetish malt. Pear and general fruitiness with a sourish malt backbone. Sweet herbal finish.

Feb 19, 2005 This was an appealing brew that was a bit better as it warmed up. It was rich and complex, yes, tasting of barley and hops with a crisp, yes, dry, but a bit-too-bitter finish.

Feb 17, 2005 I probably wouldn’t buy this beer again. It wasn’t bad--bitter hoppiness with a dark malt finish. Just wasn’t all that appealing to me. Not much of an aftertaste, really--just kinda boring.

Feb 4, 2005 Updated: Dec 15, 2008Still, coppery red. Pleasant holiday-reminiscent aroma with caramel, spice, cinnamon. Sweet on the attack, bit light-bodied, little too watery in the mouth. Cinnamon all over the sweet finish. Interesting but not enough on the palate.

Jan 19, 2005 Light Auburn in color with minimal head and some sediment...surprisingly. Medium malt profile here, nothing to get excited about, but the spicy hops here work very well, blending with the malt seamlessly. The finish is smooth, but a touch bitter toward the end as the yeast works its way into your sipping. Not a real hot beer, but tasty with a little something to perk up the taste buds a bit.
