Dec 5, 2007 On tap @ Pacific Beach Bar & Grill in San Diego. Decent winter beer. Sam Adams but a little better. Watery body, some spiciness, maltiness, mild hop bitterness. Ok

Dec 2, 2007 Found this one bottled in St. Charles, Illinois. Amber pour with a thin, tannish head, with a nice rosey hoppy nose. Amazing hoppiness, not too bitter, sweet pineyness balanced with a deliciously complex spiceyness. A strong finish. Wow

Dec 2, 2007 Pours mostly head. Its a watery brown color, slightly amber. The aroma is complex with graines and woodtones. The flavor is good, sweet, slightly bitter and very malty. But its a good kind of malty, not burnt. The after taste is even more bitter, and unfortunately has a nutty flavor to it.

Dec 1, 2007 Bottle: Nutty, roasty, and piney aroma. It pours a transparent amber with a moderate soapy off-white/yellow-tinted head that leaves behind great lacing. The flavor starts with sweet caramel with some faint piney hops in the background. The finish is lightly roasty and nutty. Light-medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Dec 1, 2007 From bottle coutesy valpoaj : Pours a hazy dark amber color with a half finger of white fizzy, quick dying head. A very piney, dry hops nose, with a little bit of sweetness. Flavor is quite good, tastes alot more like a ipa then a bitter, semi-sweet taste with hops, a little bitter bite toward the end. Palate is medium bodied, but leaning to the thinner side of medium, leaves a aftertaste with some alcohol. Not to bad.

Nov 29, 2007 Bottle. Pours a clear copper with thin white head. Aroma is malty sweet with a fair amount of hop spice involved. Flavor comes in well balanced with quite a bit of sweet roasted malt flavors balanced by an equally fat share of bitter and lightly peppery hoppiness. Finish is much of hte same with a hint of herbal hoppiness and being long in duration. I’m pleased with this one and it tastes great with some leftover cheese I had laying in the fridge. Pretty easy drinking and if I had another I’d drink it straight away.

Nov 28, 2007 Nice orange brilliant color. Light malt presence in aroma and flavor. I detect very little hop character even though this is apparently dry-hopped. A very easy drinking beer but this is a dull, boring winter beer.
