scooterbub (224), Lander, Wyoming, USA Mar 9, 2008 Updated: Apr 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours a a nice amber color with a decent creamy beige head. Aroma is of pine and grapefruit. Taste is of grapefruit, roasted malts, pine and has a slight pine aftertaste. Goes down rather smooth and is pretty tasty. I am so glad that I was able to pick up a bottle of this brew (managed to find one last bottle of it in town). I wish I would have picked up a sixer of this when it was in stock. Overall, this beer is rather enjoyable and easy drinking. Not a bad seasonal offering from RedHook.
MaltDawg (376), Richmond, Virginia, USA Nov 29, 2008 Date: 11/14/2008 Source:12 oz botle from Food Lion Grassy floral hop nose. Amber brown clear with small white head. Grassy floral hops over carmelized malt sweetness. Somewhere between a IPA and Pale Ale character. Clean mostly dry finish with touch of residual bitterness. Not bad but nothing really outstanding. SuperDave70 (929), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Nov 29, 2008 Red-brown pour with a fizzy head that’s gone quickly. Aroma and flavor of roasted caramel malt, spice, and a touch of grapefruity hops. Not bad. lithy (385), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Nov 28, 2008 Copper red, clear body with a thin whitish head that is gone instantly. Spicy winter warmer type aroma, cinnamon, big malty backbone. Solid body, taste is big spices with a solid sweet malt body cinnamon, nutmeg, light caramel, toffee. cbeers21 (456), Miami, Florida, USA Nov 28, 2008 On tap @ brewery. Deep reddish brown pour, decent head. Peaty gritty vibe, and a lightly toasted body. Good balance with a bittering hop presence. Solid. joebudzjoe (121), Connecticut, USA Nov 27, 2008 Tap @ Tigin, Stamford, CT. Very earthy aroma and flavor with hop and mellow roasty malts. A little syrupy palate. Not bad.
