argo0 (6167), Washington DC, USA Dec 7, 2003 (bottled 11/4/03) Crystal clear copper body with small beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, toffee, some spice, light earthy and grapefruit. Taste is sweet, toffee, nutty, some seasonal spice, finishing earthy and light grapefruit. Creamy light-medium body. Very pleasant winter warmer. hopscotch (4463), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Nov 27, 2003 Sparkling clear amber ale with a medium-sized, creamy, off-white head. Very good retention and decent lacing.
The aroma is malty with lots of caramel and toffee. Light citrus notes.
The flavor is very well-balanced, but a bit thin. Hopped very nicely. Medium-bodied with a watery mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Lengthy, very dry, then bitter finish. Leaves the mouth feeling parched. muzzlehatch (4425), Burlington, Vermont, USA Jan 1, 2004 Decent moderately hoppy, slightly bitter/astringent smoky/woody, slight pepperiness, strong bitter finish, pretty nice. Nose sweeter than flavor. I'm not a big fan of this brewery, but this puppy ain't too bad.
