Dec 27, 2008 Bouteille de 341 ml. La bière se présente avec une robes rubis et un col de mousse fauve crémeux. Au nez on découvre des arômes de houblon citronné sur un fond de biscuits et de caramel. En bouche le corps est moyen avec une effervescence moyenne. On goûte exactement ce que le nez nous avait prédit.

Dec 7, 2008 Draught at the Abbott. Pours a fairly clear red-copper with slight off white head. Somewhat mild nose of caramel malts, grains and hops. Bursts with flavour which is beautifully balanced between hops and malts. Very drinkable and enjoyable.

Oct 27, 2008 ’’Green hopped’’ cask at Volo cask days, October 2008. Pours amber with a thin, bubbly head. There’s an aroma of toffee with a ton of vanilla. It tastes a bit tea like in the hops, in addition to the standard malt mix, toffee, caramel. With all the choices available that day, I do wish I had chosen something different; this was too much like the original tankhouse ale. Still enjoyable.

Oct 16, 2008 In short: A decent dry and toasted caramelized Pale Ale that could passed as an Amber Ale. Decent session beer.
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Clear red-amber body topped by a small beige head
In long: A well malted beer with a malt profile that is grainy and dry, like a toasted bread crust. The big bubbles make the beer feel a bit airy. Caramel toastiness brings distant chocolate notes. Spicy fruity hops (Cascade?, others?), short and dry bitterness. For the style I would have preferred more juicy and refreshing. Still this is a decent beer and the pub is worth visiting. I’ll never forget the day I walked into that pub, ouch it hurt.

Oct 10, 2008 On tap - Nice amber color. Aroma is full of bready malt and earthy hops. Flavor is full of hops, surprised me at first but they are well balanced. Has to be at least 40 IBU’s. Overall a solid ale, my stomach will be seeing this one again.

Sep 20, 2008 On tap at the Brewpub.
Good amber color with lacing. Fruity, hoppy aroma, seems like cascade taking the lead. Flavor of darkish malts, caramel. Big and well-balanced with a bitter hoppy finish. Hop-driven and well-done.
