| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 18, 2007 Good looking pour, having a clear body the color of a new penny and a tall off-white head that laces heavily. The aroma has some sweet floral hops and a splash of caramel. The flavor has an even balance between fresh white bread & caramel and moderately bitter floral hops. Quite quaffable.

Appearance: Pours a clear, dark amber body with a foamy, bubbly white head.
Smell: Aromatic toasted grain nose with notes of caramelized sugar, flowers, and citrus.
Taste: Sweet, sugar-encrusted grain flavor with a bit of toasted nuts. Hint of flowers. Candied citrus rind with a gentle bitterness. Dry finish with a mild, lingering bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Slight stickiness to the mouthfeel.
Drinkability: A fine beer that’s very drinkable, though, sadly, at $5.10 for a single 11.2oz bottle, it’s a beer experience I don’t see myself often repeating. hopdog (5614), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA
