Jan 23, 2007 Pours a bright, clear amber into a shaker. Off-white head subsides to skim surface and stays. Fake fruit candy (Smarties - US version) aromas. Crisp and lightly carbonated. Malty with a lasting bitter pit fruit finish.

Jan 12, 2007 This was just okay. Really it had nothing redeemable except for the fact that it was drinkable. A malty nose, with apple juice and dried fruits. Taste is pretty much the same with a very smooth finish. Couldn’t really pick up any hops in the aroma or palate. It started out a little funky in the nose though, but as it warmed up a bit things sort of leveled out a bit. Not really interesting at all.

Dec 30, 2006 (Reviewed on 11/25/06) On draught at Flatbreads in North Conway, NH. Brilliantly clear golden ale, served with no head. Little aroma, mostly of barley. Flavor is sweet and malty, tasting pleasantly grainy/barley-like. Overtones of honey. Some alcohol flavor. Moderate bitterness is present from the first sip, and carries through to the finish and lingers with a citrus-like acidity. The two young ladies at my table felt cheated with their beer selections after tasting mine. I think I could drink this all night.

Dec 21, 2006 From the bottle: pours rust color. Aroma is faint, not many strong flavors, except malt. Good level of bitterness, not excessive. Good example of the style. Just got back from skiing - could be slightly biased to the plus side.

Dec 12, 2006 Bottle: Copper, light white head and lacing. Nose of light malt, a decent hopping rate too. The flavor is moderately bitter and fairly in-between styles. Plenty of maltiness and hopiness. Finishes a bit tart, sour, bitter. Not bad.

Dec 10, 2006 Light amber pour with med-large foamy head. Aroma of light malts. Taste is malty with some light hop presence. An OK drink, just nothing special. Nowhere near some of the better UK bitters/ESBs out there.
