Flavor is quite intense, though I came back one after another. Great right from the tap at the Orlando Brewing tap room in Orlando!

On tap at the Cricketeer’s Arms in The Mercado. This was served like a real ale! Proper temperature and pulled from a hand engine. I could not find out if it was indeed cask conditioned. Pricey for a pint in Orlando at $5.50. Pours a golden orange with a slight chill haze. Low in carbonation, nearly flat (as it should be). Delicious hop flavor and aroma. Smooth palate and drinks quick. This is a titan in a beer wasteland. Abandon your rugrats with the Mouse and spend your vacation here guzzling this gem.

Bright amber. Hardly any aroma - vague caramel is about it. Nice, balanced flavour. It’s juicy with citrusy, slightly woody hops. The malts are earthy and caramelly. It’s got a nice caramel finish.

Pours clear deep copper with lasting ring of an off white head. There is a lot of 90L crystal malts along with a little biscuit, toffee, bread and a hint of vague hoppiness. The nose is on the light side overall. The flavor is bold malts with 90L crystal malts, other roasted malts and some malt astringency. I also get pine hop bitterness followed up by biscuit, toffee and mild bread that all hit about midway and ride into the finish. Enjoyable roasty brew.

This English pale was hoppy with a good balance of malts. This is easy to drink, medium bodied. Good for a beginner to EPAs.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a translucent golden amber with a smaller cream/lacing off white head. Aroma of caramel, some sweet malts, fresh hops, toffee and butterscotch. Flavor was a mix of the same, nice and dry, hoppy and flavorful.

Sample @ brewery taproom. Clear bright copper with some scattered lacing. Nice and fruity, floral English hop aroma with lots of grain character too. Balanced.Balanced solid malt backbone with subtle overlay of hops and a moreish finish. Awesome session beer.
