Sep 12, 2007 12 ounce bottle. Aroma has immediate pine hoppiness, which dissipates very quickly. Intensely floral aromas are left in the wake of this. Lots of rose scents and citronella present (there are no citronella candles in my entire residence). Initially promising aroma, which goes a bit downhill, but still ok. Attractive transparent copper body with some amber tints present. Nice, moderately frothy yellow-cream head. Start is initally carbonated with some light spicy hop flavors. Becomes a little sweeter with a touch of caramel in the middle. Floral hops to finish with more of that citronella present. A light metallic flavor also lingers at the end. Solid.

Sep 5, 2007 Bottle at Hoppie’s in Cayucos, CA. Hazy reddish amber pour with some basic malt aromas. Good finishing flavor, although there’s no real middle to it.

Aug 21, 2007 Updated: Jan 16, 2008Beautiful color and richness with slight lacing. Perfect hop smell and taste without obscene bitterness taking away from it. Finishes nicely with a slight bite. Flavor lasts and leaves the mouth wanting more - it doesn’t dry the mouth as some beers seem to.

Aug 9, 2007 Bottle. Pours deep ruby brown with quickly disappearing off-white head with lacing down the side of the glass. Aroma is pungent and prickly citrus fruits - passionfruit, pineapple even some mango- and a trace of honey-like malt scent. Flavor is very light with an understated round toffee malt taste and floral and berry hoppiness in the finish. Aftertaste is lots of lingering herbal/piney hoppiness. Nice. Similar to some cask ESBs I’ve had.

Jul 31, 2007 A deep maroon reddish pour with lasting off white head. Smell is a nice fragrant sweet hoppiness. Taste is a good crisp hop flavor kick at first with light bitterness, and a smooth, clean, quick finish without much lingering flavor. Overall a really good amber that I’d buy again if I could get it here in Austin.
