| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 1, 2008 This beer is very sessionable and so well balanced, and goes with just about everything on their menu. I mean this is really impressive. Fruity citrus hops in the nose, with a bit of black tea and a medium bodied toffee/caramel maltiness, with some herbal hoppiness coming through to balance the malty sweetness in the finish.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 17, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Yeasty cloudy amber with a giant mushrooming head. This has a delicious aroma of pine and citrus. I taste mild chocolate and oranges to the flavor. Perfect level of medium bitterness. Not over the top, but enough. Fine beer indeed. davhix (36), Colorado, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 25, 2007 brought a growler home after dinner, which is a 1/2 gal ball mason jar. cool, but completely disfunctional as a beer vessel. really like this beer - good hoppy/malty flavor, opaque amber color that pours with nice head. good bitter finish that leaves you looking for another big sip. mix half/half with XXX pale for a "kind crippler" which is wicked good, but will sneak up on you.
