Dec 16, 2007 On tap at the 2007 GABF: Transparent copper bronze with a ring of spotty-lacing off-white head. Aroma of lightly sweet caramel malt and some mild grapefruity hops. Body is slightly sweet and caramely malty with nice bittering and flavor hoppy balance. A pretty good American strong ale.

Apr 26, 2006 4 oz sampler at the brewpub, 4/14/06: Finally, something good. Bright red with a ncie hoppy aroma. Silky smooth and relatively hoppy. More of an IPA than a "strong ale" ... good, but misnamed.
