Jun 4, 2006 Had this on draught in South Barrington, Illinois. Copper color with a thick white head that dissipated slowly, nose of barley and roses with a taste balanced by just the right amount of hops for me. This was good.

Dec 6, 2005 Served as a copper/amber with a holding, off-white head that left a solid sheet of creamy lace. Hopcit aroma comes across light & flowery with citrus over mild malts. Delicate and intriguing. Flavor falls from hoppy-goodness to butterscotch and sweetened iced tea. For an ale this seemed lagered. Creamy mouthfeel. This was a strange, enjoyable beer, and my favorite of the day.

Oct 21, 2005 Amber color with no head. Oh man... aroma and taste are just like soiled cardboard from a kennel that they wrung out into the fermenters. Ugh.

Aug 29, 2005 Clear bronze in color with a thin off-white head and some nice lacing. Hoppy aroma, complimented with caramel, pine and carnations, leading me to believe that this cat’s going to be sweet and balanced. Taste is in line with the style, yet watery and insignificant. Some caramel malts sweetness encasing an expected mixed bag of nuts flavor in the distance. Mild hop bitterness. Definitely not a show stopper.

Jan 11, 2005 Updated: Aug 11, 2005I liked the brownish-red look and foamy tan head of this beer. The aroma was nice and malty with some good roasted malt tones to it. Good in the mouth, if slightly watery, with rich roasted malt flavors, caramel, and a nice hop counterbalance. Robust malty finish. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?
