clear amber, fine beige head, bits of lace, light sweet caramel malt aroma with faint citrus hops, sweet caramel malt flavor, light citrus hops, touch of bitterness leaves a light long finish, not as nice as down the street at A1A or the brewfest back in 2003

Rating: 2.9/5.0
Drinkability: 7/10
Score: *4

Light malt aroma with a low citrus hop presence. Dark amber/brown in color with a tan head. Biscuit accented malt fore with a decent hop bitterness. Toasty and bready it comes off more as an English pale Ale then an amber ale.

Draft at Ragtime Tavern. Color was a reddish amber with medium frothy head. Aroma was complex hops with a tone of citrus. The flavor and finish was not a strong as the aroma and the finish was small and short. Solid drinkable ale.
