It is a bitter, and a very good one. A fruity tasty bitterness, greapefruit from Challenger and Goldings hops and lots of good comlex malting. Smooth, great lacing. Strong on the palate.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Feb 15, 2007 16.9oz bottle. pours about like a nut brown with a ruby presence. head is quite firm, with nice retention. smells pleasant. i’m beginning to think they’re going for a darker pale here. hops on the nose, as well as a field of wheat and a little malt. tastes of caramel, hops (can taste the Golding hops), and finishes with a lingering apple taste and a seperate slight bitterness. well balanced, tasty, and drinkable. noticable lacing as well here. nothing bad here, though it’s not extremely discernable either. happy drinking!
