| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 30, 2008 Truly a pretty beer in the glass. A full spectrum amber with a low dense white head. Bomber in trade with MCox90. If’n yah can trade with him...do so cause he’s the pennchuck connection. Nose is floral and rounded., but pulled from the glass and not overpowering the peaches ty speak of are faint.. This brew is going down well with no lunch and a whole lot of typing today. The body is light to medium and the hops dominate it as is the swirling dry hop finish. The rye malts are a nice stable platform. Piney. Its nice to drink a brew that is this hoppy and not so damn in your face with alcohol and body. A nice hop lovers brew. I’m going to make a sanwich now.. Thanks Mike!
