Nov 1, 2007 Updated: Dec 3, 2007Pours with a small but nicely textured head. More brown than amber and a bit hazy. Metallic nose, a bit too brassy maybe. Silky mouthfeel, light to medium body. Scales are tipped slightly in favor of hop over malt but both are quite assertive here. A good balance, really. Although highly drinkable and well-made, it’s not something that I would call extraordinary.

Oct 26, 2007 This is a pretty tasty brew. Nicely balanced between malts and hops, it is a very good amber ale.

Oct 20, 2007 Bottle. Dark amber and a little reddish with a smooth light brown head. Aroma is a mix of fruity hops and sweet malts. Body is light with a bitter finish. The caramel and roasted malts are really taking the back seat here. Given the relatively darker color, I expected something more malty. Very drinkable, though. Not too shabby.

Oct 16, 2007 Bottle. Vintage 2006. BBF 1-3-2007. Bought @ Kolding vinhandel.
Pours a deep red with a slightly fizzy creamy off white head - slightly yellow-ish. Aroma is sweet caramel with a good dose of flowery and fruity hops. Nice mouthfeel. Flavour is quite hoppy, a little roasted, with a yeasty presence. Quite bitter in its finish - very nice. The roasted feel with some ashes to it is probably something that has been enhanced by cellaring.

Oct 15, 2007 This is a pretty, mouth-filling ale with a reddish hue. The head lasts longer than many but not that long. The palate is hoppy and malty with a bitter aftertaste. Not the best of the Rogue line-up, but certainly not bad. Probably won’t buy again though anytime soon.

Oct 12, 2007 Peanut, caramel, and pine bouqet. Cloudy brown color, thick tan head. Tastes EXACTLY like unsweetened tea with lemon and a decent hop finish. Good beery mouthfeel though. Uprated for being unusual.

Oct 5, 2007 bottle. thick, light khaki, average sized head that lasted most of the life of the beer (also decent lacing on glass). Body was murky brown. aromas of hops, citrus, some floral notes. and light malts. nice bite to it, one of the better ambers.
