toddbates (95), USA Jan 8, 2008 sampled at the brewpub on cask. tasty beer with a great aroma. the beer was thin and I agree with jehoey about the beer’s watery nature. citrusy with fruity notes. dpjuart (555), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 27, 2007 11/3/07 - On cask at brewpub. MMMMM. Coudy golden, small white head. Skunky hops. Great hop flavor. Bursting w/ floral and fragrant hops. Crisp finish, mouthfeel a bit flat, but that’s the hand pump. If Otto’s has any style down, it’s the IPA/PA. Delicious. I was pissed I couldn’t take this home in a growler. DocLock (4085), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 26, 2007 On Beer Engine #1. Dark straw pour with off-white head. Nice floral hoppy aroma, with some fruity wafts. Medium palate, very smooth and complex, with floral hops and a nice balance of malt and some finishing fruit. FROTHINGSLOSH (1479), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 23, 2007 Sampled on draft at Zeno’s in State College PA this beer poured a hazy golden-amber color with a small white head. The aroma was fruity, floral and piney hops. There was a bit of catbox underneath. The flavor was sweet and bitter with strong catbox and pine. Nate (2234), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 18, 2007 On cask at Otto’s. Fresh juicy hop aroma, with grapefruit and apricot. Very aromatic and lush with Amarillo hops. Dull golden amber clear with thih lacing off-white head. Medium bodied with smooth carbobation (casked). Starts with mellow malt sweetness, smooth acidity, and a bunch of floral juicy fresh hops. This is what embodies and real ale. Fresh, flavorful, but smooth and silky. Great job on this one, and on cask brings out the subtle qualities that makes this a really good ale. Clean dry after.
