May 4, 2006 Pint Bottle: Pours a golden orange color with a stiff, stout like white head floating atop the beer throughout the entire pint. Aroma is a bit of carboard, floral, metallic, malty, dried moldiness. Taste is light and nice. Malty sweetness up front, maybe a little too sweet with a hoppy finish.

Mar 3, 2006 Bottle: Dirty golden, gritty sediment floats about, hefty white head, foamy, clingy lacing, no noticeable carbonation. Earthy/herbal bitterness on the nose, a touch of wet malts. Tingly, semi-dry, tart like sweetness on first sip. Backside seems to be a bit sloppy, wet cardboard, slightly metallic, a bit astringent, without much bitterness. Fairly smooth while being spritzy. Mild dry finish, slightly peppery. Doesn’t seem like a Bitter to me. Its okay, but a bit confused me thinks.

Feb 16, 2006 The bottle poured a hazy light amber colored beverage with an ample white creamy head that lasted throughout and left nice lacing on the glass. The aroma of the hops was more apparent than that of malt. Floral and citrus notes were quite prominent. The body was a bit thin with lively carbonation and a watery texture. The flavor starts off bitter and that bitterness builds slightly throughout the long finish.

Feb 6, 2006 Another beer more for the comment of it is bitter, not really awesome, but not bad. Not great foam, but not squashy.

Feb 5, 2006 Bottle (500ml). Poured cloudy yellow with a massive fluffy bright white head. Tons of funky, herbal UK hops, solid hard candy malt backing, some forest after the rain character, very dusty-dry - but this is mostly about the waves of funky UK hops. Taste is surpisingly muted, mostly hops but there’s some lemon and orange juice, malt sweetness - simple but pleasant, the flavour lingers quite a while. Mouthfeel is astringent, lively (not carbonated, lively) and fairly thick. This is a solid brew, and unlike most anything we get here in Ontario. Recommended.
