Thanks to Lubiere. BeerFanDan17 (610), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA Dec 6, 2008 A very smooth and tasty amber ale--almost blonde in color and texture. Pours light golden and is cloudy with a somewhat creamy head. Very smooth with light fruity flavors of apricot and hints of banana. leaparsons (4658), Leicester, Leicestershire, England Apr 28, 2002 Good combination of bitterness and sweetness. Very alcholic on the palate with a hint of pepper. Ibrew2or3 (2714), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA Apr 22, 2009 Consumed 04/22/09 with bottle stated best buy date of 06/06/09, just made it. I wasn’t too surprised by the modest gushing this thing did upon opening. It pours light amber with initially very tall tan head and cobweb lacing. The aroma is full emitting a mix of brown sugar and caramel notes as well as a layer of smooth dark fruitiness. The taste is smooth, near velvety and sweet with blended rich and indistinguishable dark fruit esters to go along with a decent load of sugar and caramel sweetness. By midway I start to get sugar drenched dark berries, concord grapes and sweet ripe caramel dipped apples. It finishes with just a hint of the ABV and lingering brown sugar and caramel sweetness. boto (1319), Granby, Connecticut, USA Aug 3, 2007 11.2 oz. bottle: I had this one while visiting Eulogy in Philly. This one poured a hazy amber color with a small off white head. It left some lacing. There is some alcohol to the nose, as well as some spiciness, apples and a bit of the caramel malt. There was some effervescence on the tongue. The taste is somewhat spicy, with the alcohol mostly hidden. Medium maltiness with some residual sweetness. Decent.
