Apple juice body topped by small white head. Aroma is sweet, malty toffee. Taste is moderately sweet, toffee, with just a hint of earthy bitterness. Light body. Nice summer brew, though it's unusual to find one steeped in toffee.

(12oz bottle) Pours a clear yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of butter, biscuit, toasted grain, nuts, and grass. Flavor of cracker-like malt and mild, crisp hops (floral, citrus, grass).

On tap at the Porterhouse Brew Pub. Poured a light yellow with a small white head. Light fruity aroma and tastes. Nothing special.

12oz bottle-pours a thin white head and yellow color. Aroma is musty grain, secondary light/fruity (saaz?) hops. Taste is musty yeasty/grain, secondary light/grassy hops, fruity-raspberry. OK but not memorable. Good effervescence.

Bottle at the Hagerstown Suns Beer Tasting... Mostly clear yellow ale with a small, fizzy white head. Both the aroma and flavor are sweet and grainy with specks of hay, orange blossom honey and herbal hops. Light-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and less-than-medium carbonation. Sweet finish.

Pours gold with the smallest trace of a white head. Smells of hay, straw, and cinnamon. Tastes of flowers but again roasted malts with a nutty finish shine through.

Average at best. Pours pale yellow, with aroma of some hops and honey. Tastes and finishes with some hops and citrus. Forgettable.
