Dryish, and well-balanced.

The Lure:
Grassy, herbal hoppiness playing within the caramel-coated apples. Dirty yeast attempts to sabotage the subtle interplay at work.

The Festivities:
A hint of tartness rises from the rampaging dirty yeast. Not infected, but intrinsically fishy, malt sweetness is muddled to a blur, and not much else from the dusty yeast can be tasted. Another very disappointing product from Rock Art.

Transcendence:
Too tired to clean up behind the couch.

22oz bomber: Pours copper/amber with a thin white head. Smells of yogurt, malt. Taste is tangy with elements of yogurt, cherries, some mild hoppy notes and a peppery finish. I don’t know what the hell this is trying to be so it must be a Rock Art brew.

22 oz bottle. Deep amber/red beer. Aroma is very fruity with cherry notes and a bit of dark chocolate. Light diacetyl/butterscotch character. Flavour is fairly fruity with a soft malty sweetness. A fairly straightforward amber. Meh.

Nice, hoppy, beautiful-to-look-at pale ale; not terribly distinctive in the flavor department, but goes down well.

Bomber poured a clear amber with a lasting creamy ivory head. Aromas of fruittiness, carmel, earthiness and light graininess. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of carmel, fruittiness and light earthiness with a smooth malty finish.

Clear caramel amber pour with a thin white head. Sweet aroma of alcohol and spices. Decent flavor of caramel, alcohol and spices. The body has a light to medium thickness with a dry mouthfeel and soft carbonation. Unremarkable.
